A hopeful group of English settlers, unfamiliar with the dangers of the American frontier, put their trust in two guides to lead them to new lands. But their guides are not what they seem. They are malevolent agents with a sinister plan, intentionally leading the settlers deep into hostile Huron territory.
Abandoned and surrounded by danger, the families are left at the mercy of the wilderness. When word of the settlers’ journey goes silent, the ever-watchful Hawkeye (John Hart) and Chingachgook (Lon Chaney Jr.) become suspicious. Knowing the perils of the region, they set out on a tense search and rescue mission. Their race against time to find the lost settlers before it’s too late makes “The Threat” a suspenseful episode of Hawkeye and the Last of the Mohicans.
