Biorhaphy
Edward was created by an eccentric inventor. The inventor dies before he’s able to complete Edward, leaving him with scissors instead of hands.

After this, Edward lives alone in the inventor's mansion for an unknown period of time. He keeps busy by making art out of plants.

Edward is found by an Avon saleswoman named Peg Boggs, who takes pity on him and invites him to live in her house. Peg's neighbors are fascinated by Edward. Edward falls in love with Peg's teenage daughter, Kim Boggs.

Edward becomes popular around the neighborhood by giving free haircuts to dogs and women. However, he gets in trouble when Kim's boyfriend Jim convinces him to assist in a burglary by using his hands to pick a lock. His reputation further suffers when his neighbor Joyce falsely accuses him of rape after her unsuccessful attempt to seduce him.

While Kim's family is setting up for Christmas, Edward carves an ice sculpture, whose shavings create snow which Kim dances under.

Later, Jim sees this and realizes that Kim has feelings for Edward. He becomes full of anger and jealousy, believing that is why Kim broke up with him and plans revenge on Edward.

He calls for Edward which makes him accidentally scratch Kim. Jim then tells the townspeople that Edward did this on purpose and he's dangerous.

Jim, jealous of Edward, pushes Edward and yells at him to go away. Edward is initially upset, but after a stray dog calms him down he returns to Kim's house.

When Edward returns and finds Kim alone,because her parents are out looking for him, she asks him to hold her but he fears he will hurt her and walks to a window to avoid seeing hurt in her eyes. Kim reaches under Edward's arms and hugs him and he hold his hands out of reach of touching her and hugs her back.

When a drunken Jim almost runs over Kim's brother Kevin, Edward saves him but accidentally cuts him in the process. Edward's neighbors now believe him to be dangerous, prompting Edward to run back to his mansion.

Kim follows Edward to the mansion, concerned for his safety. Jim has followed her as well. He shoots at Edward and misses and then begins to beat him with a piece of wood. Jim hits Kim when she comes to Edward's aid.

As a result, Edward stabs Jim through the torso and pushes him out a window, killing him in the process.

Realizing he can never return to the neighborhood, Edward tells Kim goodbye. Kim kisses Edward and tells him that she loves him. Kim then tells the townspeople that Edward is dead, allowing him to live in the mansion in peace.

Past
Scissorhands was made by a very old inventor. His inventor gave him everything but one thing: hands. Sadly, the inventor died before Edward could be completed.

The Present
Seventeen years later, an Avon lady named Peg Boggs finds Edward and brings him to a colorful land called Suburbia. There, Edward shows his true talent by cutting hair, grooming pets, making beautiful ice and topiary sculptures. He also falls in love with Peg's beautiful daughter, Kim Boggs.

Most of the neighborhood grows to accept and love the strange newcomer, but his innocent morals and unusually kind nature makes it clear that he does not fit in within the 'normal' world.

There is a dramatic showdown with Jim, Kim's abusive boyfriend and a serious of misunderstandings lead the town to shun him as a dangerous outsider.

At the end, Edward goes back to his lonely castle home and Kim kisses him which she tells him that she loves him.

Later, Kim tells the town that Edward and Jim killed each other, ensuring that Edward will be left in peace forever. The last moments of the film reveal how much Edward's brief presence changed the town and Kim.

 * Though Tim Burton was unfamiliar with Johnny Depp's then-popular performance in 21 Jump Street, he had always been Burton's first choice. At the time of his casting, Depp was wanting to break out of the teen idol status which his performance in 21 Jump Street had afforded him. Fox studio executives were so worried about Edward's image, that they tried to keep pictures of Depp in full costume under wraps until release of the film. To prepare for his role, Johnny Depp watched the films of silent movie actor Charles Chaplin to get an idea of how to emote without dialogue.
 * Johnny Depp's wardrobe and prosthetic makeup took 105 minutes to apply.
 * During the scene where Edward is cutting the neighborhood ladies hair, the song playing is from Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street. Johnny Depp would later go on to play Sweeney Todd in another collaboration with Tim Burton.
 * Edward's odd hands mean he is unable to touch others physically, which becomes a problem when he falls for Kim. The film suggests there are ways he could gain ordinary hands, but that never comes to pass. Ultimately, it matters more to him that she understands and reciprocates his love.
 * The character is parodied in Munchkin Steampunk. There is a Level 10 monster that is called Edward Blenderhands. He wears an outfit whose sleeves cover his hands, which carry blenders that stick out. His special quirk is his inability to attack the lowest level player, but if the lowest-level character is tied with someone else, Blenderhands will still attack. His bad stuff is death as one of his blenders goes to purée and his other one goes to blend. Mechanics are at +3 versus Blenderhands.
