I just thought of a successful comedy that pokes fun at bad films:
"What's Up Tiger Lily" fits the bill, but might be stretching the
point since Woody Allen made it by taking a BAD film, adding his
own soundtrack and producing a Badfilm.  (Did I get the terminology
right?)  For those who haven't heard of this gem, Allen took a
low-grade Japanese (?) spy thriller and turned it into a story about
a plot to steal the recipe for the world's greatest egg salad.
He mucked around with the soundtrack to his heart's content, and
probably re-edited it too.  I haven't seen it in quite a while since it
generally shows on TV at about 3 in the morning and I haven't watched
TV seriously in about seven years ....
