An overstressed suburbanite and his neighbors are convinced that the new family on the block is part of a murderous Satanic cult. He's a man of peace in a savage land: Suburbia. When secretive new neighbors move in next door, suburbanite Ray Peterson and his friends let their paranoia get the best of them as they start to suspect the newcomers of evil doings and commence an investigation.But it's hardly how Ray, who much prefers to drink beer, read his newspaper, and watch a ballgame on the tube, expected to spend his vacation. —purstris This story takes place in a typical American neighborhood, when new neighbors come to live in the house next to Ray Peterson. These new people are really strange: nobody has ever seen them, their house is a real mess, and during the night weird noises keep coming from their basement. The only thing they know is their name: Klopek. One day Walter (an old man of the neighborhood) suddenly disappears and everyone starts to suspect the Klopeks. —Chris Makrozahopoulos <makzax@hotmail.com> Ray Peterson takes a week off from work just to walk around in pajamas all day, read the newspaper, and lie low. However, Ray has some very peculiar neighbors. He actually has no "normal" neighbors, but one particular neighbor is especially strange. Therefore, Ray and the other neighbors decide to investigate what's wrong with the Klopeks, and the relaxing week off from work becomes something far from relaxing. —Lars J. Aas <larsa@colargol.edb.tih.no> The Klopek family moves into an old house in a new neighborhood and act in very unusual ways. Everyone nearby is concerned about why these new people are acting strangely and the people have never seen them before. Plus, no one has greeted them for the month they've moved in there. Then three neighbors team up to see if they can figure out what is really going on with the Klopeks. —Atariman

An actor and a chef fathom a plot to fix a horse race and attempt at capitalizing it, while striving to tackle two of the hitmen responsible for the scheme. Two friends, an actor and a chef, discover a plot to fix a horse race and try to capitalize on it. But they must also deal with the two men who fixed the race, who are trying to silence them. Then there's the mob boss the two guys work for, who planned the fix, and whose wife is having an affair with the actor. —<rcs0411@yahoo.com> While filming on location at a race track, womanizing bit actor Spencer Holden, who lives life on one scam after another, overhears a couple of inept thugs named Binky and Turnip while they dope a race horse with a supposed undetectable super stimulant. The thugs find out that Spence overheard them and will do anything to catch him so that he won't go to the authorities with the information. Spence enlists the help of his best friend, drive-in carhop and aspiring restaurateur Dennis Powell, to bet on the race with that horse so they can make some guaranteed money. Spence and Dennis end up not only having to outrun the thugs, who manage to put a few bullet holes in Spence's car, but also the police when they find Spence's bullet-riddled car and after the race horse, Sorry Sue, dies from the drugs. Add an antique player-piano Dennis acquires, sympathetic but naïve auction-house employee Ellen Frankenthaler who is attracted to Dennis, and exotically beautiful Claudia Pazzo who is interested in buying the piano and in whom Spence is irresistibly drawn, and Spence and Dennis may be in more trouble than they ever imagined. —Huggo
