The movie stayed with me for years!!! In the movie monsters would reach out from underneath things and grab people. Up until after I was married I would turn out the light to my bedroom and leap from the lightswitch to the bed and I would never, never let my arms or legs dangle off of the bed while I slept (I still don't). I tried to break myself from it and would look under the bed to show myself that nothing was there and then turn the light out. It didn't work, I still leaped into bed!!! I've finally gotten over it but it took me a long time.

That must have been awful!!
I also dont sleep with my legs or arms dangle out of bed, NEVER!!
While i still lived at home, my mom had to come check to see if there was nothing under my bed, when i moved out, my husband had to do it.... for a long long time. After my son was born, i knew i had to get myself together, but i'm still scared of the dark, i so wish i could get over it.
