Don’t Read The Latin! Episode 103: We Live!
We attached some bolts to our necks and licked a 9-volt battery, and here comes DRtL back to life!
Your hosts Jennifer Lovely and Rhias Hall return to talk about what they’ve seen since the last time, and a little about traditional Halloween showings.
Please forgive the audio quality, I’m still figuring out the acoustics in our brand new house!

DRtL Episode 51: Time Loops and Time Travel!
Happy Halloween, Latin Club! We’re excited to get to bring you a new episode on our favorite holiday of the year. This time (ha! Get it?), we’re talking about Time Loops and Time Travel! (And amazingly enough, Michael somehow gets through the entire episode without mentioning Doctor Who even once!) Also, Jen talks about taking the Scarecrow Video Psychotronic Challenge, and about Shudder, the curated Amazon Video horror-movie channel!
Spoiler Warnings — Usually, we try not to give away crucial plot elements of the movies we discuss on DRtL, but that was a little tricky with this episode — since with a lot of the films we mention here, the very fact that the plot does involve time-travel shenanigans is actually meant to be a surprise. So if you are particularly spoiler-sensitive, you might want to skip this episode, and you maybe shouldn’t even look at the tags on the blog post. Sorry!
Alternately, if you encounter any spoilers you wish you hadn’t heard — just go back in time and warn yourself not to listen! Problem solved.
(Looking for something a little more seasonally-themed? Hop in our time machine and travel all the way back to 2014’s Episode 10: It Happened on Halloween! for an episode that’s all about movies set on or around Halloween!)

DRtL Episode 32: The 70’s, Baby!
Welcome to the latest, almost hilariously overdue episode of Don’t Read the Latin, with your hosts, shiftless ne’er-do-well Michael Montoure and Magical Girl Jennifer Lovely! I know we keep saying this, but we will, hell-or-high-water, be going back to our normal bi-weekly schedule following this, even if someone has to die. (Not one of us, ideally. It’ll be no one you know, don’t worry.)
This time out, grab your bell-bottoms and your disco shoes, because we’re going back to the 70’s! Even though the 70’s are not our favorite horror movie decade (that would be the 80’s), you could make a strong claim that it was the best, with a high number of standout classics. Give it a listen and let us know what you think.
Recommended! As far as new movies go, there are two we’ve seen lately that are both super, super-fun, and we highly suggest you give these two a watch ASAP: Tales of Halloween and The Final Girls. Four thumbs up. (That’s two from each of us.)

Episode Ten: It Happened On Halloween!
“Welcome to DRTL, the podcast that is not about Beastmaster.”
It’s October! It’s October! That means that this whole next month is, effectively, Halloween. We got a little excited.
This time, we’re talking about movies that take place on or around Halloween. (Yes, including the original Halloween.) How many of them do you think you can watch this month?
Finally here’s a …. a …. Call it a “bonus video.” (It will make sense once you listen to the episode, honestly.)
