Nicodemo Antonio Massimo "Nick" Mancuso (born May 29, 1948) is an Italian-born Canadian actor and playwright. He is probably best known for his roles as the antichrist Franco Macalousso in the Apocalypse film series produced by Cloud Ten Pictures, and for his starring role in the NBC action series Stingray (1985–87).

Early life

Mancuso was born May 29, 1948 in Mammola, Calabria, Italy and emigrated to Canada in 1956.[1]

Career

In the early 1980s, Mancuso starred in Ticket to Heaven in which he played the part of a David Kappel, a non-observant Jewish teacher in Toronto. His girlfriend leaves him and he visits San Francisco to find his footing and see an old friend. He is lured into spending a weekend at a camp that is actually the recruiting and indoctrination center for a religious cult. It becomes apparent that this film is based on the Unification Church.[2]

Among the other roles Mancuso has taken on there was the role of Holden Downes in Captured. In this sometime violent film, he plays a real estate tycoon on the edge. He comes across some thieves who are out to rob him and takes his anger out on them.[3] Instead, he turns the tables on them and making them the victims.[4]
