Sub Genres help for boardgame

[Scubajoe89]

Would welcome all of your views on this one!

I am in the midst of creating a legacy type boardgame where players are in control of competing movie studios that specialise in Horror movies. Part of the gameplay is that you will play through decades of film, starting in the 1920s through til the 2010s, unlocking new film tech and movie sub-genres as you go.

My difficulty has been defining a sub-genre for each decade. For instance, the Creature Feature sub-genre can easily be applied in the 1920s (1922's Nosferatu for example can be considered a Gothic movie and a Monster movie) whilst also applying to the classic B-movie monster films. And this can be said for many sub-genres.

SO I am looking to you guys for some help in filtering out the following sub-genres (and any help is greatly appreciated, if anything else it opens up a decent discussion on Horror in itself).

The sub-genres I have chosen for the game are:
Gothic, Psychological, Creature Feature/Monster, Body Horror, Slasher, Splatter/Gore, Paranormal, Folk/Rural, Natural, Crime, Sci Fi Horror, Comedy Horror, Found Footage

There are also tagging mechanics in the game which act as keywords for each film made by the player and can give boosts such as "vampire", "Home Invasion", "Revenge", "Based on Literature", "Teen", "Haunted House" and many more (I did consider whether some of these could be sub-genres in themselves but that would over complicate an already ambitious project)

The rules:

The 1920s has to start with **4** sub genres and then each decade thereafter unlocks a new sub-genre from the list above.

SO, if you absolutely had to, which from the list above would you define to each decade? If you could post in the following format then that would be grand. This is my initial thoughts, completely up for debate and would welcome all of your views. I recognise that it is near on impossible to define one sub-genre to 100 years of film making but for the purpose of the game, it needs to be more broad.

1920s - Gothic, Psychological, Creature Feature/Monster, Folk/Rural
1930s - Body Horror
1940s - Paranormal
1950s - Sci Fi Horror
1960s - Natural
1970s - Crime
1980s - Slasher
1990s - Comedy Horror
2000s - Found Footage
2010s - Splatter/Gore
