I've seen something similar to this, which was caused by invisible ctrl-Z
characters somehow getting into my text file. If you view a hexdump of
the file, are there any unexpected characters in the file, particularly
before or between the # ! characters?
If not, what happens if you run the file directly with Python?
python shebang-test
