Up front: I've just read other IMDb members' reviews of Darkness Falls, and if this isn't just the darndest case of "I-must-have-been-watching-a-different-movie" that I've come across! The following is clearly a VERY brief minority report.
Decent acting, good story flow, nice special effects for the budget, honest scares, fine gore-avoidance, entertaining mood-setting opening credits, and cliches up the whazoo. A solid 6 out of 10.
This, from a jaded, cynical old-timer.

This tale of odd friendships is delightful. The film is full of wonderful moments and some fine insight into the minds and hearts of teenagers. The scene wherein "my bodyguard" finally locates the used motorcycle part which will put him back on the road, and the ride with Cliff which follows, are a joy to behold. Enjoy small roles by John Houseman, Ruth Gordon, and larger ones by Matt Dillon and Martin Mull,and even a quick appearance by George Wendt. The soundtrack is a great mix of classical plus some hard-to-define music from jazz great Dave Grusin.
