The Saint

[cudak888]

Something about the animation - style of the era, I dare say - gives it the feeling of a very cheap, fast-paced copy of the Poirot opening credits.

[th4397]

[Saint1551]

o-O

[sportandmovies]

[enoorkoiv]

Pretty Grim I agree, and a blue Jenson Interceptor? what were they thinking!...

[ftsjr]

The original Saint theme was awesome. This one sucks.

[rifraf]

this is sooooooooo awful

[mikesway23]

im g.lad i ever saw this remake and should be called The Shit, and have a bucket of shit pour on top of him when some1 says his name lol

[darganx]

I thought Ian Ogilvy was the last Saint, b4 Val Kilmer in the movie. Simon Dutton??

[hilarioph]

I watch this in the Philippines when i still a kid

[509ptownwash]

[Ariamaluum]

Magnum P.I. graphics.

[LiamTheGreat]

gotta love that slap base. If only there was a long version of this theme

[duendeargentino]

Simon Templar "El Santo"... solamente Roger Moore

[ryoushii]

Actually, the 60's theme dates back at least to the radio show version starring Vincent Price in the 1940's. In fact the part of the theme played by the flute on the TV theme (the light liting bit)was whistled on the radio show version, possible by Price himself. I think that theme might even go back to the George Sander's Saint movies of the 30's.

[tastyspunker]

I have nothing against Dutton, though I think he would've benefited from much shorter hair. The title sequence was a terrible along with the shitty theme. The original 60's was experimental, fresh and ahead of its time. But this crap firmly dates it. "The name's Simon Templar." Cue halo. Cue catchy 60's music with graphics. It's the only way to do it.

[RMJ1984]

Crappy music

roger????

[MrDirector]

Why would you do a new Saint adaptation if you're not even going to use the theme music???

[wytiuk]

true

[cbak12sg]

@MrDirector Later episodes with Roger Moore didn't have the original music, nor did Return Of The Saint with Ian Ogilvy.

[PREGO1966]

@MrDirector This was from 6 feature length episodes made in 1989-1990. And for what its worth, the Ian Ogilvy show "Return of The Saint" from the late 70s had different theme music than the Moore series as well and is actually enjoyable.

[Rhubba]

By far the worst Saint adaptation except for the Val Kilmer movie. These TV movies were slow paced and had poor action sequences.

[gilmore97]

This shit HELLA SUCKS, and i'm not even from the UK. LOL

[fakkov]

No Roger Moore? Wtf?

[hebneh]

Note the presences of the World Trade Center twin towers in the New York City skyline in the credits.

[lelvish1]

This looks and sounds awful! No wonder this didn't work.

[thecheesepriest]

I remember this as a very poor attempt of bringing The Saint back to ITV. Three magic letters were sadly missed. I.T.C.

[simkins91]

What year was this Saint made.

[kquraishi]

This is from 1989. These were made for TV Saint movies. This particular one was called, "Fear in Fun Park". I believe this was the last one and also the best one. Simon Dutton was actually not a bad Saint. I had recorded all the episodes on VHS back then.

[lelvish1]

what the hell is this?!!!!!!

[adoraburl]

These SAINT TV movies have now been released on DVD in UK

[ka7cev]

Thanks for posting this. I really like the theme music to his show. Kudos also for including the ITV/HTV West intro. Being from the US, I didn't know this version of The Saint existed. I'd like to see an episode someday.
