Raising Buchanan

Raising Buchanan is a 2019 American comedy film produced by Amanda Melby, Joe Gruberman, Chadwick Struck and Cathy Shim, written and directed by Bruce Dellis.

Ruth Kiesling is a 39-year-old woman with anger issues and a history of making poor decisions.

Ruth sees an opportunity to turn her life around by stealing the body of a dead president to hold for ransom.

Dellis shot the film on location in Phoenix, Scottsdale, Mesa, Tempe, Prescott and Paradise Valley, Arizona.

Originally, actor/comedian Andy Dick was slated to play the part of Lancaster Guy, but performance issues and allegations of sexual improprieties caused his firing the day after his scene was shot.
