There are already companies like Asylum films. Pay attention to the right hand column of this table:

Parody films do not compete with the actual films they are parodying. It's not a good comparison.

  • I don't think they are meant to be parodies. Parodies poke comedic fun at the originals. These are meant to confuse someone into buying the wrong version of a popular film. That's why they make sure the names and even the covers look as identical as they can without getting sued.
