Other lesser known horror parody/spoofs...

What are some other lesser known under-the-radar horror parodies/spoofs that come to mind?

Some I can think of:

Pandemonium (1982) - This and Student Bodies were the first ones I think.
Silence of the Hams (1994) - mainly spoofs Silence of the Lambs and Psycho.
Bloodbath at the House of Death (1984) - Horror spoof starring Vincent Price, never seen it, but heard it's funny.
There's Nothing Out There (1992) - This one was kinda low-budget, but I remember it being pretty funny. It's not exactly a parody/spoof movie like the others, but the whole movie deals with mocking horror movie cliches.
Doom Asylum (1987) - Saw this a few months ago, really corny and stupid. Don't bother.
Return to Horror High (1987) - another stupid and corny one like Doom Asylum, this one's at least slightly more amusing. Look for an appearance by a then unknown George Clooney.
Invasion of the Mindbenders (1987) - I remember seeing one on "USA Up All Night" when I was a little kid, I used to think it was funny back then, but have no idea what I'd think of it today, I can barely remember any of it anymore.
My Lovely Burnt Brother and His Squashed Brain (1988) - Haven't seen this one, but have heard mixed opinions on this one.

Saturday the 14th (1981) -- well, I thought it was funny when I was 14.

Lots of vampire spoofs, of course: Revamped, Love at First Bite, Once Bitten, Dracula -- Dead and Loving It, Transylvania 6-5000, etc.

Vincent Price-wise, there's The Raven, Comedy of Terrors, House of the Long Shadows (less comedic), and somebody already mentioned Bloodbath at the House of Death (hilarious, if you like British humor/humour).

Oh yeah! And a German import, "Die Nacht der Lebenden Loser" ("Night of the Living Dorks"). Great stuff!

Great titles there, BoxOfficePoison! Vincent Price's "Theatre of Blood" is also a bit of a spoof, or a horror film with comedic elements (as many of his films are).

I liked Class Reunion when I was a kid. It was like Prom Night and Terror Train with the prank-gone-wrong motive.

Wacko (1982) is a bottom-of-the-barrel horror spoof. It makes Student Bodies look like a comedy classic.
