# but wouldn't disaster movie be spoofing disaster movies
and therefor not spoofing parodies..

Scary movie the analogy works for as scream was a parody of sorts of slash films.. but yeah.. I think the rest of them don't work as they're not funny :)

# The sort of films that they were spoofing were already a parody of it's genre
Scream worked ok as it seem to take itself seriously at first but then got more silly.

But still anybody who grew up with slash horror films never took them seriously not like the disaster movies of the 50-60-70s where people just didn't see the silly side of it all.

What I find most disturbing is the current batch of gore horror movies that do take themsleves way too serious like Saw, and Hotel etc. for fuck's sake make it a little less realistic!
