A parody film is a subgenre of the comedy film that parodies other film genres or films as pastiches, works created by imitation of the style of many different films reassembled together. Although the subgenre is often overlooked by critics, parody films are commonly profitable at the box office. Mockbusters are another type of genre for parody films and the mixing of sci-fi, horror, war, thriller films also known as black comedy film. It is known as a sketch comedy film or a crossover humor film.
