Something heavey sat on your laptop. Thats why you should never check your laptop. Always carry it with you.

The screen may have a loose cable or the connections allong the side of the glass that energize the pixels hase been damaged. That would mean its just about permanant. Doesn't mean the laptop is junked just means you need a new screen for it. But the replacment will run you about $150 to $300. Probably more then the laptop is worth right now.
