YouTube Spotlight: Top 5 The Hillywood Show Parodies
The Hillywood Show. Established in 2009, comedy sister-duo Hannah and Hilly Hindi, have been writing, directing, and starring in parodies of various popular movies, songs and television shows to their ever-expanding YouTube audience.
Since their first parody Twilight Parody to their most recent, The Umbrella Academy, they’ve been working to bring fans parodies of all our favorite shows, songs and more.
In honor of their newest parody release, I’m taking a look back at their previous videos and ranking my personal top five favorite Hillywood parodies.
#5 Hocus Pocus Parody
Release date: December 2, 2015
In my opinion, this is one of the funniest Hillywood parodies to date. To mix Hocus Pocus with The Nightmare Before Christmas was a great idea, and even though it’s one of the shortest parodies, they hit all the best parts of the movie and then some. Who wouldn’t want to “Kidnap the Children” after watching this?
#4 Pirates of the Caribbean Parody
Release date: November 1, 2013
Captain Jack Sparrow loves his rum. This parody made to Adam Lambert’s “If I Had You” was funny and reiterated that Captain Jack really only has one love and that not all treasure is silver and gold.
#3 Supernatural Parody
Release Date: May 21, 2015
Who doesn’t love seeing Dean and Sam sing a parody to Taylor Swift’s “Shake It Off?” That’s what I thought! You get to see some iconic moments from the show in true Hillywood style and also some cameos from Supernatural cast members Rob Benedict, Jensen Ackles, Matt Cohen, and Jared Padalecki, just to name a few.
#2 Harry Potter: So You Think You’re a Wizard
Release Date: August 27, 2012
What I loved most about seeing this parody was that Hannah and Hilly took on the challenge of recreating one of the most popular So You Think You Can Dance dances of all time, and then put a Harry Potter twist to it. The song “Outta Your Mind” By Lil Jon, fits perfectly with what they were trying to accomplish. Harry just wants Voldermort out of his head.
#1 Supernatural Parody 2
Release date: August 16, 2018
“Who you gonna call? Winchesters!” Compared to the previous Supernatural parody, Supernatural Parody 2 takes the spot in my book as my favorite The Hillywood Show release to date — the use of the parodied Ghostbusters theme was spot on! From the beginning with Misha Collins to the end with Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki coming in and everything in between, this parody is one for the books.
