Fathom Events and Specticast are excited to bring a sneak peak of Kevin
Smith’s latest horror comedy Yoga Hosers. 15-year-olds Colleen Collette
and Colleen McKenzie are on their smartphones constantly, sing in a
small band, and take yoga classes. The girls will do just about anything
to receive an invitation to a senior party. But when they discover the
leader of a Nazi splinter group has been raising an army of monsters
beneath the store where they work, the teens team up with a legendary
man-hunter to stop the world-threatening uprising.
