Edward Scissorhands (1990)

A Wonderful Film


Edward Scissorhands has become a film classic and a favorite to watch around the holidays (Christmas/Yuletide) for many people. It's a very nice story of a scientist and his "son" Edward. Edward was not completed before his father-creator died so he is left with scissors for hands.

Peg sales Avon and ends up going to the home of Edward. She has a bleeding heart for him and brings him back home with her to live. Ed falls in love with her daughter Kim but Kim's boyfriend is extremely jealous and mean towards Kim as well as others... this causes friction in the community.

The movie is a light-hearted romantic comedy-drama (dramedy). It's colourful and dark at the same time. It's just an all around good movie. 

Note: This is Vincent Price's last significant film.

8.5/10
