Just watched this Barbara Eden made-for-TV movie on YouTube. She plays Dina Hunter, a rich woman with husband Robert Vaughn on vacation in Central Ameraca after getting in a car accident in which she may have caused something awful. A man named Paul Carter (Stuart Whitman) is posing as an artist and following them. Oh, and the movie begins at a party in which a woman is murdered and has her necklace taken from her which for a while seems unrelated to the rest of the picture. And Larry Storch is one of those patrons who tells lame jokes at his only appearance. I'll stop there and just say that I liked the whole premise including the twist ending and was also intrigued by the music score and some nice glamorous shots of Ms. Eden. So on that note, I consider The Woman Hunter worth a look for anyone interested in these obscure telefilms.
I found this movie in a dollar bin which was actually on sale 10 for a buck and figured 'what the hell'. I usually don't like to buy those because the movies are mostly crap and the picture and sound quality is also mostly crap. But I was always a Jeannie fan so. . . While the plot is a little slow and a bit (much less than I thought it would be) dated, Barbara Eden doesn't fail to make it somewhat interesting. It's about a wealthy woman who is trying to recover from a dark incident in her past which has resulted in a precarious emotional state. Then there's the storyline of rich women being bumped off in various parts of the world. Stuart Whitman plays a mysterious character and Robert Vaughn plays her cold, distant, workaholic husband. The ending is a surprise ending and I'm probably the only viewer who didn't see it coming.
Someone on here made a disparaging comment about Stuart Whitman's pot belly and it made me think. I've been watching quite a few 70's movies and TV shows lately and have noticed how actors in those days and prior didn't seem to try to be so physically perfect the way they do now. They had pot bellies, balding heads, crooked stained teeth and (omg!) wrinkles--wrinkles when they were actually old and **should** have winkles! No botox, no "Hair Club For Men", no teeth bleaching. People were **real**. That reviewer was offended by SW's belly. I found it comforting.
Not a bad little 70's made-for-TV flick. A bit better than the usual dollar bin crap. Oh, and in the middle of the movie, Barbara Eden suddenly breaks into this cool and sexy dance for absolutely no reason. . .hence my review heading.

When I grade a movie, I start at five and add or subtract the pros and cons from there. There are a couple of things which I like about this film: Its ability not to betray its ending, and its scenery (mother nature sure was kind to this spot in Mexico AND to Barbara Eden). But, in my opinion, it has more cons than pros: It shows a few too many times bare from the waist up, the character, "Paul"'s aging bod, and him recording his babblings of his encounters with the "Hunter" couple. (The latter is extensively written into the flow of the pic.) Is it also a BAD thing that there are so many shots of Miss Eden? Other impressions are of its excessive slow-movingness and, at times, echoy audio (especially during some indoor scenes). The basic story is of a wealthy couple, vacationing in Acapulco, being of interest to artist "Paul", of whom Mrs. Hunter becomes increasingly suspicious, after some initial sparks between the two. (She is tempted, no doubt, as a result of her husband mixing too much business with what was supposed to be post-wreck pleasure for her.) I wouldn't discourage anyone from spending time and/or a little money for THE WOMAN HUNTER. Maybe this person's negatives will be somebody else's positives.
After opening with the murder of a woman, we are introduced to the prime suspect, Paul Carter (Stuart Whitman).
Enter beautiful, zillionaire socialite Dina Hunter (Barbara Eden) who has just returned home after a terrible auto accident. Dina's husband (Robert Vaughn) is an overly-driven, inattentive jerk. Not-too surprisingly, this sends bored and neglected Dina into the arms of another man.
Uh oh!
Dina's gotten herself mixed up with none other that Carter, who has been following her all along! This all leads to suspense and thrills during the big twist finale.
THE WOMAN HUNTER is a wonderful made-for-TV thriller. It's Ms. Eden's movie and she makes the best of it. While she is indeed stunningly gorgeous, she's also a great actor. Her dance scene is a show stopper!
Highly recommended for the Barbara Eden fanatic...

Barbara Eden stars as a woman named "Dina Hunter" who has just inherited a fortune due to the death of her father. Because she was accidentally involved in the death, her husband "Jerry Hunter" (Robert Vaughn) accompanies her to Acapulco so that she can recover both mentally and emotionally. While there she meets a man named "Paul Carter" (Stuart Whitman) who she believes is a murderous jewel thief intent on killing her and taking her jewelry. Now, considering the presence of accomplished actors like Robert Vaughn and Stuart Whitman one would think that their mere presence would be able to lift this film up from mediocrity. Sadly, that is not the case as this "made for television" movie fails to capitalize on their abilities. Fortunately, Barbara Eden manages to keep the film from completely crashing due to her beauty and charm. Even so, the lack of action and suspense is definitely noticeable and the final product suffers accordingly. Somewhat disappointing.
