Thank You Nikki Finke!
I want to thank Nikki Finke for visiting Deadlantern.com and sending me a cheerful e-mail with the subject line “Did you see this posting?” and then including a link to her “Exclusive” with Eli Roth.
If Ms. Finke had done some research, she would have realized that not only did we defend Roth from her initial attacks, but we also criticized Roth for his response to her.
Now Ms. Finke, I know you’re reading this, and since you don’t like to do any actual research, no matter how easy it may be, I’m including the links for you in this handy dandy blog post. Hope that helps you out, and I hope you keep in touch!
Expect an oral vivisection of Ms. Finke on Splattercast #51
UPDATE: Just as I’d expect, Finke e-mailed me back…
FINKE: “I’m glad you saw the posting. As a tribute to you, I’ll attend a PG-13 horror film. Best, Nikki”
MaT, Deadlantern.com: “Good, I’m glad. I whole-heartedly support PG-13 horror films just as I support R rated horror films, or G and PG for that matter. Just be sure to use the money you’re getting from those “Halloween Horror Nights” advertisements with Freddy, Jason, and Leatherface when you pay for your PG-13 horror film. I’d call “hypocrisy”, but I think you already know that 
Cheers

P.S. Heck, rather then spend the money on a PG-13 horror flick, use our “tribute” to go rent A Nightmare on Elm Street or Texas Chainsaw Massacre. ”

I imagine she’s a self-centered bitch and she did a search for herself in Google.

Good job Mat! We’re always saying that we never get hate mail, but now we’ve got some smart-alecky mail from a “bigshot” like Finke. I’ll definitely put this on the outline for Splattercast #51

How the hell did she know about your articles? Does she spend time searching the net for her own name and references to what she writes?
Don’t answer. Everyone knows that professional busybodies do just that. Yikes.
That woman isn’t just weird, she’s Holy Shit weird.
