Hijinks Ensue, Comedy Is Had
A Spanish horror-comedy in which a group of bank-robbers stumble into a witch coven. Hijinks ensue, comedy is had. The theme of this one is about how the robbers (all men) have woman issues and have all but renounced their kind as villainous, deceptive and bitchy (*cough* witchy–get it?) The witch coven has done the same thing (there are no warlocks; though one witch has a son she keeps locked up in an underground vault).Some lessons are not really learned, and there’s a hulking monster witch with enormous boobs at the end the men have to contend with (one woman takes their side, alas). There’s definitely some fun to be had here but it’s fleeting and I’m not sure it’s anywhere near as progressive as it thinks it is (if it does, I don’t know).

Years ago I saw Alex de la Iglesia’s film, Accion Mutante, and I really liked it, despite the poverty-row budget. It had interesting, though unsympathetic characters, whose antics were fun to watch and an amazing artificial world full of surprises.Witching & Bitching is an absolutely terrible title for a movie. I blame de la Iglesia’s unfamiliarity with English. In any case, it is clear from the start that Mr. de la Iglesia’s style in this film is the same as Accion Mutante. He has his signature whacked-out, borderline insane, outside-the-law bunglers, alongside seemingly minor characters that turn into major pillars of the plot line. He has his lame running jokes that rarely work, but are somehow comforting nonetheless, and, just like Accion Mutante, the movie has enough plot twists for three or four more conventional films.
Accion Mutante kept you surprised every minute. Witching & Bitching (man, I HATE that name) can’t do quite as well, because the title, as well as the title screens both give away the fact that, at some point in the film, witches figure prominently. I was thrilled by the fact that the film managed to mingle fairy-tale witches with earth-goddess shenanigans.
Some of the scenes were spectacular. Many directors, when they get money, don’t seem to know how to spend it to get the best results. But de la Iglesia sure did. You got to see every penny on the screen, and as a result, this movie was, in my opinion, superior to my beloved Accion Mutante.
I love the way that his films attack both the status quo as WELL as the revolution. He subverts the subversives. His witches are (obviously) aggressively feminist, but it is clear that if they controlled more of society, the world would not be a better place.
If you’ve not seen Accion Mutante (which probably most people haven’t), then perhaps the closest “type” of movie to Witching & Bitching would be something by Terry Gilliam, or perhaps City of Lost Children. If you like that kind of anarchic, fantasy semi-comedy, this might be for you.
