The Skulls (2000) was a thriller about an ambitious college student (Joshua Jackson) who joins an elite secret society modeled on Yale's Skull and Bones. Only to discover that the organization's dark secrets come at a deadly price. Paul Walker co-starred as the charismatic fellow initiate whose friendship becomes complicated by the society's sinister agenda. The film capitalized on the cultural fascination with secret societies and Ivy League privilege. Both Jackson (Dawson's Creek) and Walker (who would soon become a global star with The Fast and the Furious) were at the peak of their late-'90s/early-2000s heartthrob status. Turn-of-the-millennium thrillers on VHS capture a specific era of Hollywood casting. Initiation complete. VHS tape. Pre-owned. See photos for condition.
