I am 32y and, as many of you here, was scared to death by this amazing movie when I was a kid. It does deserves a remake although I am a little bit afraid that my childhood memories will stick with the original one forever.
Good luck, Ned, and let us know about the progress of the remake!! -

I, like most of you, remember the film from watching it as a child. I have just found out the name of it at long last and am not sure if I could bear to rewatch it again, even as an adult. The film haunted my childhood, especially when in the back of the car with my brother, The scary bit was the fact that the girl died whilst her siblings played a silly joke, it still haunts me now. Can anyone help remind me how the mum died?? Brother from the frisbee on the roof? gran from the snake? dad in the bath? I think but how did the mum die? I am the only one of my friends who remember anything about the film and its great to hear that other people were as affected by the film like I was.

I just wanted to add to the ever-growing list of fans of this movie. I was about 7 or 8 when I watched this, I only saw it once and I was thinking about it today and after some searching was finally able to find it. Like others I remembered part of the title "Don't", and I thought either Bed or Sleep was in there.
I also just ordered it from ebay, thanks everyone!!! -

I would love to buy this picture and rewatch it as an adult to see how it affects me now, opposed to how I remembered it as a child when I originally watched it. However, I am now a terrified grown up girlie and don't think I have the guts to watch it again. As a child I could watch any scary picture but now I find it difficult watching anything even remotely scary. This film has haunted my thoughts for years and I have only just found out its title too. Enjoy the film when you get it.

Ned,
I wasn't a kid back in '82, but DGTS is one of the great TV movies. I was struck that it was an instant classic even then. I even still have my copy of the original ABC broadast, sans commercials that I made way back then and have enjoyed over the years. The most startling scene to me was not the pizza cutter as others have stated, but Jennifer's first appearance under the bed. Scary stuff. But, I really want to compliment you on the painful confrontation scene between the parents. It made me uncomfortable years ago, but now that I'm older, I see the truthfullness and honesty in that scene. Great writing.
Kudos and good luck with the re-make, which I'm sure will be great, but nothing can top the original. -

As many others above I can't believe I've finally tracked down the name of this film! I remember seeing the beginning back when I was 10 or 11, but was sent to bed before the end. I remember the tied shoelaces, the bed, bath and roof scenes, so typed them into google and found a webpage talking about the film! Finally after 20 years! Just need to get my hands on a copy now so I can see it in full!

Yes Mr. Wynn, I think it would be a super idea to remake this film, being that I just watched it for the first time in over 23 years!! I thought it was okay, still a remake would be beneficial in this day and age of all kinds of horror movie remakes. I finally found a copy, and I saw some images that could be very creepy with todays special effects capabilities!! My main question is will you play the role of the ambulance driver again? If you decide you want any suggestions for a re-do let me know, for I have been dying to write a "scarier than hell" horror movie!!
