Actually I think they were very carefully creating this confusion. If you
listen closely they do state that the funding went to the "theater" that
was planning to show the film, not the film itself, but that goes by very
quickly and they made sure to blur that distinction with the "shocking"
imagery and voice-over details.
I think the Fox team is actually very smart and crafty, and has a lot of
fun making stuff up.
