Il presidente del Borgorosso Football Club
Benito Fornaciari, a pale, devoutly Catholic, Upper Middleclass Italian inherits a minor-league football club from a long-lost uncle. He decides to visit the club to sell it, but the local population has other ideas: through an almost-armed uprising they "force" him not to sell the club but lead it to other glories on the football field.
Paradise Alley
Three Italian-American brothers, living in the slums of 1940's New York City, try to help each other with one's wrestling career using one brother's promotional skills and another brother's con-artist tactics to thwart a sleazy manager.
The Tomb of Dracula
Boston, United States. Dracula, the immortal vampire, interrupts a satanic ritual and flees with Dolores, the woman whom the members of the evil cult are about to murder. Overwhelmed by his love for her, and unable to drink her blood, they have a son together, whom they name Janus. (Loosely based on Marvel's The Tomb of Dracula comic book series.)
Across the Pacific
Rick Leland makes no secret of the fact he has no loyalty to his home country after he is court-martialed out of the army and boards a Japanese ship for the Orient in late 1941. But has Leland really been booted out, or is there some other motive for his getting close to fellow passenger Doctor Lorenz? Any motive for getting close to attractive traveler Alberta Marlow would however seem pretty obvious.
