Little Monsters Englisch

Little Monsters is a 1989 American fantasy comedy film starring Fred Savage and Howie Mandel and directed by Richard Alan Greenberg.[2][3] The screenplay was written by Terry Rossio and Ted Elliott, and it tells the story of a young boy named Brian Stevenson, who befriends a real-life "monster under the bed" named Maurice and discovers a secret world of monsters who sneak into children's bedrooms at night to pull pranks on them.[4][5] Although the film failed financially, receiving a limited theatrical release due to Vestron’s bankruptcy, it obtained a cult following on home video.[6]

Plot
11-year-old Brian Stevenson and his family move to suburban Boston where he feels isolated in his new neighborhood. One morning, Brian finds himself being blamed for several pranks he did not do and is punished for them. Brian blames his 6-year-old younger brother Eric who claims to have seen a monster the night before. At his new school Brian gets into a fight with bully Ronnie Coleman.

Brian makes a bet to stay in Eric's bedroom but later finds it in shambles and sees a TV remote supernaturally disappear under Eric's bed. The next morning, Eric and his friend Todd find Brian sleeping in the living room and joke about Brian being unable to sleep the entire night in Eric's room. Brian makes a bet to sleep in Eric's room one more night.

Brian sets booby traps, succeeding in trapping the monster Eric saw—a blue-skinned humanoid named Maurice. Though initially scared, Brian soon discovers that he and Maurice share the same interests and befriends him. Brian also learns that sunlight causes the monsters to collapse into piles of clothes. Over several nights, Maurice takes Brian into the supernatural monster world through a portal under his bed. The monster world is filled with junk food and video games, with no adults to supervise. It also has innumerable staircases leading to the spaces beneath children's beds, from which the monsters cause trouble.
