The Kentucky Fried Movie (1977)
Directed by John Landis
A series of loosely connected skits that spoof news programs, commercials, porno films, kung-fu films, disaster films, blaxploitation films, spy films, mafia films, and the fear that somebody is watching you on the other side of the TV.

What critics compared The Kentucky Fried Movie to
Occasional comedy successes have come with movies like “The Kentucky Fried Movie,” “The Groove Tube” and “Amazon Women on the Moon.”
Breaking up the ZAZ (Jerry Zucker, Jim Abrahams, and David Zucker) squad that founded the whole subgenre with pictures like “Airplane!” and “The Kentucky Fried Movie,” Abrahams decided to strike out on his own with this extended “Top Gun” riff, bringing in Pat Proft to help mastermind the script.
