The Grown-Ups Table with John & Jesse

The New Horror Boom: Sinners, Weapons, & 2025’s Scariest Originals


Listen Later

This week at The Grown-Ups Table, John & Jesse are joined by special guest Balls From Elwood (The Balls From Elwood Show, Troma cult classics like The Power of Positive Mrder, Amityvillenado, and Poultrygeist 2). Together, we’re diving into the BOOM of original horror in 2025.*


From Sinners and Weapons to The Presence, Home, Dangerous Animals, and Together, we’ll break down why this year’s slate of horror feels so fresh — and ask the big questions:

• Why are audiences hungry for originality again?

• What themes are connecting these new nightmares?

• Can this boom last, or will sequels take back over?


Grab your seat at the table and join us as we celebrate the rise of fresh horror voices.
