The Skulls
Reviewed By: RyoKazama534
Fraterneties and Sororities are a part of many colleges across the nation, bringing students closer to each other and at the same time, cutting them loose. In exsistance are a few underground societies. Harvard is famous for them. The Skulls tries to point out to what life is like as a member of one of these elite groups. It goes that once you become a Skull, you're set for life. Getting out is another matter.
The Skulls played as a sort of mystery involving a reporter who was murdered while uncovering information about the underground society, the Skulls. His best friend, a new initiate of the Skulls, wants to know the truth and will stop at nothing to figure out why his friend was killed. The plot goes on to show that the power of the society is extremely great, so great that he ends up in a mental hospital after being drugged.
What makes me wonder about this movie is that I have recently been reading an SAT preperataion book, you probably know it as Tooth & Nail. Tooth & Nail has a loose plot line following a reporter and his continued search to dig up information on the Tooth & Nail underground society. Gee, does this sound framiliar?
All in all, this movie was rather silly. The premise okay, but one can essentially predict what is going to occur next. However, it does have a decent soundtrack, featuring one of the best mainstream DJs, Fatboy Slim.
