Amazon.com:
A date-movie masquerading as an Indian uprising flick, has Scott Brady as a frontier painter with a penchant for models, trying to forestall war with the Iroquois. The plot follows the conventional line, with the frontiersmen (and women) besieged in their fort, driven back into their hovels, then saved at the last moment by the cavalry. But the focus is not on the story line, and clearly on the bustline, as various fine babes vie for the attentions of Brady, including a squaw played by Rita Gam. One scene depicts what appears to be an Iroquois version of a wet T-shirt contest, with Gam the clear winner. On the DVD you'll find optional Japanese subtitles, lengthy notes on the cast and crew, and what appears to be a fairly unfaded print of the film with vivid colors. --Jim Gay

Rating:  - scott brady
This is very poor for Scott Brady. He was a better actor than this. I like his B westerns but cah do without this one.
Rating: - Quality scalped!!!
I actually made it through the movie, so shame on me for not having something better to do for over 90 minutes. This is the 3rd DVD title I've watched from Alpha and the quality is really lame. I don't expect perfection on movies from the 50's and earlier, but, flutter, colors going in and out and contrast changing in the middle of scenes is pretty bad. The copies I've watched look worse than what one would find on regular TV.
Rating:  - I'll come back for you!
MOHAWK is a delightfully bad movie that succeeds despite itself. Ostensibly about a 18th century frontier painter (Scott Brady), it's really nothing more than an innocent cheesecake (and beefcake) movie saddled to a western plot.
Our hero Brady is away from the post, painting barmaid Greta's (Allison Hayes) picture when his Boston fiancée, Cynthia (Lori Nelson), arrives. Beautiful Mohawk princess (daughter of chief Ted de Corsia) Onida (Rita Gam) isn't on scene yet, but she arrives soon ... Read More
Rating: - STCOK SHOTS ALONG THE MOHAWK
As Ron Wood mentionned in it's review, most action sequences in MOHAWK comme from John Ford's DRUMS ALONG THE MOHAWK. This 1939 film provided stock shots for many other movies. In 1944, one shot of Mohawk warriors setting Fonda's place afire in DRUMS was used in BUFFALO BILL. Battle scenes around the fort were then used in MOHAWK. Almost the same scenes were used again in the pilot episode of the DANIEL BOONE TV series starring Fess Parker in the mid-60s.
As far as stock shots are concerned, ... Read More
Rating: - Mohawk
This is a rather interesting movie in that it uses a lot of distant scenic and action shots from John Ford's Drums Along The Mohawk. This is most noticeable, because all of a sudden while viewing the film, the production values are suddenly increased and the cinematography becomes almost ravishing instead of run of the mill that the "new" portions of the film just can't match.
As an aside, I remember seeing Drums Along The Mohawk twice when I was a kid in the 1940s in a small town where I grew up ... Read More
