David Zucker & Leslie Nielsen Take On Michael Moore!! Vivendi Gets U.S. Rights To AN AMERICAN CAROL!!


The "Team America" version of Michael Moore

I am – Hercules!!


The latest spoof from writer-director David Zucker (“Airplane!” “The Naked Gun,” the newer, better editions of “Scary Movie”) will be distributed in the United States by start-up theatrical distributor Vivendi Entertainment.

“An American Carol” tells the tale of a Michael Moore-ish filmmaker who gets a visit from three apparitions after he fails to get into the Independence Day spirit.

The comedy stars Leslie Nielsen, Dennis Hopper, James Woods and Chris Farley’s kid brother Kevin as the bearded, corpulent documentarian.

Two of the ghosts appear to belong to George Washington (Jon Voight) and George Patton (Kelsey Grammer).
