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.

The Cabin in the Woods is pretty good. It tells an interesting story while still hitting its marks to be a "college kids getting picked off by the supernatural far from civilization" horror movie parody.
It's unironically my favorite horror movie, there's so many references to other horror films for those familiar it's insane. Such a fun watch every time!
I love the SCP movie!
