Director Kevin Smith tweets that he suffered 'massive heart attack'

Kevin Smith, the director of "Clerks," tweeted early Monday that he survived a “massive” heart attack after taping an unidentified show.

“If I hadn’t canceled show 2 to go the hospital, I would’ve died tonight,” he tweeted. “But for now, I’m still above ground!”

He went on to say that the doctor who saved his life said he had a 100 percent blockage of his LAD artery, known as “the widow-maker,” The Hollywood Reporter reported.

Smith was in the news late last year after he announced that he would donate all future residuals from his early films to Women in Film. Harvey Weinstein, the disgraced movie mogul, helped Smith become a successful director.
