"Under the bed. It’s under your bed, in your bedroom. Why you wouldn’t want to visit: Sure, there is junk food, video games, and fun. But stay there along enough and you will become a monster."

Movies That I Changed My Mind About (51 movies items)

"The film being surprisingly dark for a kids film, combined with it’s crude humour, and the idea that the parents where always on the verge of some sort of break up, made me feel really uncomfortable having seen it. But now, I enjoy the movie at more now. The special effects and Howie Mandell may have played a huge part in me liking it a bit more now."

Lessons To Be Learned From Horror Films (570 movies items)

"Doing bad things and getting away with it, sounds like a good idea at first. Direct actions, have direct consequences. And also, friends help friends, and not all monsters are monsters."

You know......for kids! (180 movies items)

"The monster land under Brian's bed looks, fun and enjoyable, full with junk food, toys, and all sorts of goodies, but if you stay down there long enough, you risk turning into a monster. Plus, the pranks pulled in the film, especially on the girl, that "supposedly Brian, kind of sort of likes", are more mean spirited, than funny. Heck, Brian's parents even appear to be on the verge of divorce, though out the course of movie! "

Movies the giraffe watched in 2019: May (25 movies items)

"First viewing - May 18th The kiddo wanted to watch a movie, and after digging through all the options available on Hulu she couldn't make up her mind. Then I spotted this and said we'd just watch it. One thing that struck me is that it's listed among the kids films, but there's a lot of expletives throughout the film. How it's PG and not PG-13, I'm not even sure. Aside from that, I appreciated the ideas and concept of monsters living under the bed and having their own world and odd rules. Howie"
