Swamp, Dark Ritual, Priest of gix, Recurring Nightmare to pump gravestorm.

Animate the priest cast Bitter Ordeal.

They loose at the start of their turn. YAY!

(might need an entomb...)

I believe that you need 3 more mana for the Bitter Ordeal.

While there is enough mana to play all of them (the last time the priest comes in play ordeal instead of the nightmare) this combo doesn't work for another reason. 

Targets are chosen before costs are paid, so the priest is not a legal target for the nightmare.  You will need to have two priest s with one in the graveyard before this begins

You need another priest and something like Culling the Weak to sack it for mana.
