Don't Read The Latin

Welcome back for the big eight-oh of Don’t Read the Latin! This time, your hosts Jennifer Lovely and Rhias Hall are on board for talking about Final Girls. And not just their favorites, there’s a bit of discussion about the trope itself.

And for the record, my AT-AT is awesome. – Handsome Fiance Jim

Jennifer and Rhias are back… or are they? This week’s topic are movies with unreliable narrators, strange twists, and reality shifts, so who knows if this episode is even real? We hope your enjoyment of this episode is real, regardless!

Hey everyone, Don’t Read the Latin undergoes a slightly new format with this episode, where your hostesses will be choosing a number of films to discuss instead of ranging all over the topic, so that they can delve a little deeper into the movies.

In this inaugural show, Jennifer and Rhias discuss the movies that have most affected them, for good or ill! Enjoy!

For this episode, we take a little turn off Scary Movie Boulevard onto Real Life Movies Lane, to talk about the documentaries that Jennifer Lovely and Rhias Hall both love. If you’re a fan of true crime, Golden Age Hollywood, or Werner Herzog, this is the show for you!

Next time, back to horror with a little change in format to shake things up… Stay tuned!

A new episode appears! Your hostesses Jennifer and Rhias discuss horror with a religious bent. While we’ve done shows on the devil and exorcisms, this covers the general topic more broadly, hitting things like pagan religions and angels.

On a technical note, I’d like to apologize for the sound quality on this one, I hit the wrong switch on the mic so it’s really crackly. I did the best I could, but it’s definitely not my best work. However, without further ado, here’s the picture of Rhias, Jillian Venters, and me, Handsome FIANCE Jim as we ride the Haunted Mansion all alone.

It’s that time again, and Jennifer and Rhias  are joined by Lisa (from the Noir! episode), and Jillian Venters of Gothic Charm School  to talk about fairy tales: their horrifying origins, the stories of women they contain, and the movies that hold those things close to their celluloid hearts. Join them as they rip those hearts out and feast, including a few movies that you might not have thought of as fairy tales, then wind down with them as they discuss their own childhood stories and movies.

Handsome Boyfriend Jim note: At no point in this episode do they even mention “Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters” which I think is criminal, and Jen thinks I’m criminally tasteless for loving as much as I do. But I write these blurbs, so Hansel and Gretel gets its time in the sun!

Welcome back! Now that hosts Jennifer and Rhias are back from the dead, they want to talk about how to get your kids hooked on… I mean, introduced to horror! Listen them both try to give good recommendations AND keep the show PG!

If you think that those dolls are staring at you, or your reflection in that one mirror is just a little off, then you might need this Don’t Read the Latin! Your hosts Jennifer and Rhias talk about their favorite cursed items, and a few of their least favorites. And watch out for that… lamp?

Greetings Latineers, it’s a new year and that means more horror to look forward to! Jennifer and Rhias run down the list of the movies they have hopes for, and couple that they have little hope for.

Hey, Latin illiterates, we’re doing something a little different this time, our subject this episode is noir! Jennifer and Rhias get hard boiled with their own real-life Nick and Nora, Kevin and Lisa! (Kevin is an actual private eye!)

We hope you enjoy our detour into the seedy underbelly of the city!
