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

Tucker and Dale vs Evil. Criminally underrated
That's a great call. I forgot about that movie. That is a good take on a slasher while also making fun of the genre.
Totally different but the same description would work for it: Cabin in the Woods
