Few parody movies have made people laugh as hard as Airplane!. Robert Hays plays a nervous former pilot who has to land a passenger plane after the entire crew gets sick. Julie Hagerty plays his co-pilot. The movie takes the tense style of 1970s disaster films and turns it into something completely silly. The jokes come one after another and almost never stop.

2. Spaceballs (1987)

Where to Watch: AMC+, MGM Plus, Philo, Amazon Prime Video, Amazon Video, Fandango At Home, Apple TV Store, Spectrum On Demand, Plex 

Directed by Mel Brooks, Spaceballs takes everything you love about epic sci-fi space adventures and turns it into a big comedy. Bill Pullman plays Lone Starr, a space hero who travels with his half-man, half-dog friend Barf. Their mission is to stop the evil Dark Helmet from stealing a planet's entire air supply. With clever jokes about chosen heroes, wise mentors, and powerful villains, this film is funny from start to finish.

3. The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad! (1988)

Where to Watch: fuboTV, Paramount Plus, Amazon Video, Apple TV Store, Spectrum On Demand, Fandango At Home

There are few characters in comedy as funny as Frank Drebin, the clumsy and clueless detective played by Leslie Nielsen in The Naked Gun. He is trying to stop a plot to kill the Queen of England, but almost everything he does goes wrong. Nielsen plays the role in a very straight and serious way, which makes every silly moment even funnier. The movie turns classic crime and detective stories into one big joke after another.

4. Scary Movie (2000)

Horror fans will find a lot to laugh about in Scary Movie. The story follows a group of teenagers, played by Anna Faris and Shawn Wayans among others, who are being chased by a masked killer. If the setup sounds familiar, that is the point. The film takes the story and iconic moments from Scream and other popular 1990s horror films and turns every single one into a joke. The result is wild, surprising, and very hard to watch with a straight face.

5. Shaun of the Dead (2004)

Where to Watch:  Amazon Video, Apple TV Store, Fandango At Home

Not all parody movies rely on fast jokes and loud humor. Shaun of the Dead is a quieter kind of funny, following Simon Pegg as Shaun, a regular and unambitious guy who barely notices when zombies start taking over his town. Nick Frost plays his lazy best friend Ed. Director Edgar Wright uses the familiar zombie film setting but fills it with British humor and a lot of heart. It is funny, warm, and surprisingly touching.
