Nominator's rationale: There's a consistency problem in this tree. There was some pointless wankery around this in 2016, with the head article moved back and forth between "comedy horror" and "horror comedy" a few times in quick succession and the category almost immediately nominated and renominated to tag along each time -- but the article and the list of films have been stably at "comedy horror" ever since that silliness ended and have never been moved back again since, and all of the individual by-century, by-country and by-decade subcategories have always been named "X comedy horror films" and never moved to or from "X horror comedy films" at all. Consistency is the most important thing here, so we should get these aligned first and then address them all as a batch if anybody actually wants to revive any sort of argument that "horror comedy" should be preferred.
