Move over Pacey Witter, Luke McNamara has arrived. "The Skulls" hit theaters on March 31.

Joshua Jackson plays Luke McNamara, a senior at an Ivy League school, which is believed to be Yale although the name of the school is never mentioned. The reason for this is because the letter "Y" is on the uniforms of the rowing team in which McNamara is captain. Other than that, McNamara is an employee at the school's dining hall, has outstanding grades and is an aspiring lawyer.

The Skulls are no strangers to the students, although the fact that it is "secret and elite·• rub some people the wrong way, like Luke's roommate, Will. It has been known to be around for at least 200 years and it is believed that three presidents had been members. Becoming a member of the Skulls for Luke means free tuition to law school, a substantial increase in his bank account and a new convertible, which is a nice change from the 10-speed bicycle he was riding. Of course when Luke is recruited to become a member, he is ecstatic. However, he soon finds out that he can get whatever he wants; for a price. When Will, an as- piring journalist doing an expose on the Skulls commits suicide (or does he?) Luke's suspicions arise.

All of the actors in this film play their parts very well. Cast member such as Craig T. Nelson and Paul Walker compliment this film as a father and son team. Nelson plays Litten Mandrake, chairman of the Skulls and Walker is Caleb Mandrake, who is assigned to be Luke's "soul mate." Leslie Bibb, known for her role on the WB series, ''Popular" plays Chloe, a friend of Luke's whom Luke has a crush on. She too plays her role very well.

This is a nice change for Jackson from his goofy but lovable character Pacey Witter on "Dawson's Creek." It should be fairly obvious that Pacey and Luke are nothing alike. Although he looks adorable in a tux, I don't think Jackson's character Pacey will be wearing one any time soon on "Dawson's Creek." Oh well. If you want to see Jackson and his baby blues on the big screen and leaving you full of suspense, then see "The Skulls." You won't be disappointed.
