Synopsis

Brian (Fred Savage) isn't scared of the monster living under the bed. On the contrary, when he gets to know the wild-eyed boogeyman, Maurice (Howie Mandel), the pair become fast friends. During the night, Maurice takes his young charge into the netherworld of monsters, where they have a great time making mischief in the lives of sleeping children. But Brian's opinion of Maurice and his freewheeling lifestyle changes when he discovers that he himself is turning into a monster.

Notes

Howie Mandel was so young in this! It was my first time seeing him in a movie. I did not know he was an actor /comedian! Only knew him from watching him as a host on Deal or No Deal and America's Got Talent. He was my mom's favorite.

If I watched this movie as a kid, I think I would have been scared. Some of the scenes in this movie, especially when they were in the alternate world looked pretty disturbing!
