    Airplane! is also a parody of one particular movie that is mostly forgotten now, Zero Hour, and spoofs a then popular subgenre of airplane catastrophe movies.

    Walk Hard in particular is very much in the ZAZ vein.

      Fun fact: Zero Hour is so unintentionally funny they lifted a lot of it verbatim and Airplane! is technically a remake. They had to buy the rights.
