I've seen The Day of the Beast, The Last Circus, Witching and Bitching, and The Bar. They're all insane, and I mostly enjoyed them.
The Last Circus is particularly batshit crazy, and it caused me to read up on Spain's history, since the whole movie is basically a metaphor for the country's abuse at the hands of the political extremists.
Witching and Bitching was fun, and surprisingly unsympathetic to feminism.
The Bar, however, despite a promising beginning got so stupid I almost turned it off.
Alex de la Iglesia is definitely a satirist. All his movies I've seen are making some kind of social commentary under whatever crazy stuff is being shown.

I'll have to check out Veneciafrenia.
Reads like he grew up in a tourist town. I've had similar feelings.
Yes, that would be... Oh that's her name...
