In the sleepy little town of Los Lobos, the locals are used to strange happenings and deadly 'coyote attacks'. When feisty city girl Rhonda trails her missing girl friend to the town's ominous Lycan institute, she's convinced something dreadful has happened and will stop at nothing till she's found her friend.

A team of scientists working on a remote dig site find the buried body of an enormous monster, perfectly preserved even after 200 million years. As soon as the beast is uncovered, however, an alien spacecraft suddenly appears above them and brings the monster back to life! The creature immediately sets about levelling the surrounding urban landscape and shrugging off the best firepower the military can throw at it. A lone scientist, working on decrypting an ancient set of hieroglyphics, may be on the verge of finding the aliens' weak point, but will it be too late?
