A Kiwi film critic claims he is one of several writers caught up in a plagiarism row sparked by Quentin Tarantino's girlfriend.
Well known horror movie fan, actress and magazine writer Lianne MacDougall - aka "Spiderbaby" - quit Twitter and axed her website after being accused of plagiarism by a blogger, The Guardian reported.
Her last tweet said: "I apologise for the plagiarism in my work. I am leaving journalism behind for awhile. I'm so very sorry to everyone esp those I have wronged".
Among the websites MacDougall is accused of plagiarising are Empire magazine, Critical-Film.com and HighDefDigest.com.
Christchurch-born film critic Richard Scheib, who now lives in Canada and runs the website www.moria.co.nz, believes he was one of the authors allegedly plagiarised.
