What we really need are some faithful to the book(s) Saint movies.
Charteris' great character has always been too sanitized in the tv versions.
(I mean, the Saint was a real criminal who never hesitated to kill the 
"ungodly"when necessary).  Done right (which includes doing them as period
pieces) I think they could really take off.
