Parody

History of the World Part 1
Orson Welles opens History of the World, Part I with that iconic voice, delivering the kind of grandiose, overly serious narration he's famous for. But this time, instead of some high-minded historical documentary, he's setting the tone for Mel Brooks' riotous parody of history itself. The contrast between Welles' weighty delivery and the absurdity unfolding on screen is the first of many jokes in this film. Immediately, we’re introduced to a group of Neanderthals engaging in some very prehistoric frooging, bumping, and grinding. It’s a direct parody of 2001: A Space Odyssey, but where Kubrick went for awe and mystery, Brooks leans into the lewd and ludicrous. These cavemen aren’t interested in the mysteries of the monolith; they’re simulating a variety of sexual acts, reveling in crude humor, and setting the tone for the irreverent ride through history to come.

Cannibal! The Musical . Top Story - September 2024.
Trey Parker and Matt Stone—two dudes who would soon become infamous for the unstoppable cultural nuke "South Park"—started their journey with this bizarre little project, Cannibal! The Musical. Now, if you’ve ever wondered what kind of movie two soon-to-be comedy titans make in college with a shoestring budget, bad wigs, and a bunch of snow, this is it. It’s crude, it’s cheap, and it’s completely hilarious in the most messed-up way possible.
