The film "Remo Williams the Adventure Begins" is based on a series of books called "The Destroyer" series. There are well over 100 books in the series!

Much like the Ian Flemming books about James Bond are less campy then the movies the Destroyer series of books is also much less campy.

Here is a great film clip from Remo Williams-
