Whitman plays yet another incompetent law enforcement officer in Tobe Hoopers cult favorite Eaten Alive (1976). His Sheriff Martin is slow to discover why so many people are disappearing in the bayou near the Starlight Motel, owned by crazy old Neville Brand, who keeps a pet alligator chained up in the bog behind his property. Could the giant, vicious and voracious reptile somehow be connected with these missing persons cases? The macho Sheriff Martin never seems to make the link, preferring to hit on the young lady whos in town searching for her missing sister.

Whitman worked in the nearby Tampa shipyards as a boilermaker and ship fitter until 1943. Then, in the middle of World War II, he saw military action in the South Pacific. He was assigned to a troop transport ship. And to pass the hours, he found a guitar and taught himself to play it (left-handed, of course). He was soon entertaining the troops, as they were ... starved for entertainment.

In the 1971 made-for-TV movie Revenge, Whitman plays a cop investigating the disappearance of Bradford Dillman, kidnapped by crazy Shelley Winters, an obsessive mother intent on avenging her daughters rape. Dillman--the man Winters believes is the rapist is locked inside a cage in the basement of her isolated house. Revenge benefits from excellent performances by the three leads and a classy script by Joseph Stefano (Psycho, The Outer Limits).
