Maverick director Alex de la Iglesia (The Last Circus) is back with his latest bout of cinematic insanity, Witching and Bitching, about a gang of jewel thieves who run afoul of a coven of witches. As you can see from this CraveOnline Exclusive preview of the film’s first five minutes, it’s probably going to be another fun one.
Watch as a gang of griping cosplay criminals jack a Cash for Gold store in broad daylight, and are unexpectedly forced to defend their parenting skills, and then go see the rest of this crazy horror-comedy when Witching and Bitching hits theaters and VOD on June 13, 2014.
From the Press Release:

From its opening moments involving a shootout between a series of street performers in costume (including Minnie Mouse, the Invisible Man and Jesus), it’s clear that acclaimed filmmaker Alex de la Iglesia is in top form here. Capturing all the wit of his previous films such as The Last Circus and The Oxford Murders, but employing a much more streamlined energy, Iglesia serves up the laughs, action and thrills in spades. Creative effects and frenetic, tongue-in-cheek jokes make for a visually inventive comedy with plenty of scares and surprises along the way. So grab your iron dentures and sharpened utensils. Dinner is served.
