Perils of the Wilderness is a 1956 American Western serial film directed by Spencer Gordon Bennet and starring Dennis Moore.

Plot

U.S. Deputy Marshal Dan Lawson teams with RCMP Sergeant Gray to go undercover and capture the nefarious smuggler Bart Randall. Lawson, posing as an outlaw called Laramie, is ready to infiltrate the gang led by Randall, who is wanted for murder and bank robbery in the United States. In addition to the difficulties inherent in the mission, Lawson must deal with other issues, including the use of a fake totem and flying a hydra plane to awe the menacing Indians and renegade whites. He is aided in his search by Donna Blaine, who is suspected at first of giving information to Randall, but who is really a Canadian secret agent investigating Randall's illegal gun trading with the Indians.
