What movies, books or tv shows are meant to spoof/parody a particular genre while actually being a great example of the genre? - eviltoast

The 3 that come to mind for me are Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz and The Princess Bride. All three are poking fun at their respective genres but also are great examples of the genre. I’m curious if Lemmy has other such examples.

    Starship Troopers is peak sci-fi in that it holds up a mirror for society to see the ugly bits.
