Thursday Movie Picks #31: Spoofs / Satires / Mocumentaries

Hey! Welcome to Thursday Movie Picks where you get to share your movie picks for each topic presented every Thursday!  Based on the theme presented each week, you can pick up to 3 to 5 movies and explain why you picked those movies! This meme is being hosted by Wandering through the Shelves!



This week's theme is: Spoofs / Satires / Mocumentaries


Awesome theme for this week! I love watching movies that are satires or spoofs of various other movies or topics and I tend to watch a lot of movies in that nature!  So, I will be listing some of my favorite spoof movies ever made!

King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table embark on a surreal, low-budget search for the Holy Grail, encountering many, very silly obstacles.


Oh man! I remember watching this movie quite a bit in school!  I just loved the way that this movie spoofed the King Arthur mythos and there were so many hilarious scenes in this movie, including the scene where the Black Knight constantly gets his limbs cut off!

A skilled London police officer is transferred to a small town with a dark secret.


Oh my god! I just loved this movie when it first came out!  I loved the way that the film spoofed the police thriller genre and I loved all the characters in this film!

In Shanghai, China in the 1940s, a wannabe gangster aspires to join the notorious "Axe Gang" while residents of a housing complex exhibit extraordinary powers in defending their turf.


This is seriously one of my all-time favorite foreign films and I just loved the way that the spoofed the Kung Fu genre by having the characters perform skills in a "Looney Tunes" way!

  1. I haven't seen this Monty Python film but I'm sure it's hilarious. I love Hot Fuzz and I made a colleague of mine fall in love with it too.
