The following list is the Official Definitive List of the 200 best parodies of all time.
I averaged 32 different ranked lists of “Best parody or spoof movies of all time” to get this definitive compilation.  

“A parody is a lampoon or imitation with intentional exaggeration of a specific target or subject for comedic effect. Parodies employ irony, humor, and satire to mock and or criticize their subjects.” – StudioBinder

See my Methodology page for the research process that was used, including all 32 lists that were averaged. Below is a checklist you’re welcome to print, followed by the full list with links to IMDb.
