Edward Scissorhand‚ is a comedy‚ romance‚ sci-fi‚ which revolves around a love story between Kim‚ a messed up teenager‚ and Edward‚ a freakish mixture of childlike humanity and shear destructiveness‚ doomed never to grow up or share a home with other creatures.

Death‚ the inevitable aspect of life. Many think that death is a portal to another realm‚ others think that it is the end of all life and existence.
