🎬 The Skulls (2000) | Slept-On Cinema Podcast Secret societies. Ivy League power. Late-90s conspiracy thrillers that somehow got absolutely buried by critics.
This week on Slept-On Cinema, we dive into The Skulls (2000) — a glossy, paranoid, endlessly watchable thriller inspired by real-life elite secret societies like Yale’s Skull and Bones. Starring Joshua Jackson, Paul Walker, and Leslie Bibb, this film explores what happens when ambition, loyalty, and power collide behind closed doors… and how high the price of success really is.
Despite a baffling 9% critics score on Rotten Tomatoes, The Skulls delivers peak early-2000s vibes: candlelit rituals, ancient rules, elite campuses, dangerous friendships, and the kind of slow-burn tension Hollywood doesn’t make anymore. We break down why this movie works far better than its reputation, why Paul Walker is electric in one of his best early roles, and why this film feels like a missing link between Urban Legend, National Treasure, and prestige conspiracy thrillers.
