As we gear up for Tim Burton's return & Wednesday Season 2 on Netflix, Aaron & Johnald Give their Fresh-Eyed Edward Scissorhands Reaction, Recap, Commentary, Analysis & Full Movie Spoiler Review!!

Aaron Alexander & John Humphrey bring their hearts and scissors to the screen in this Reaction & Review of Tim Burton’s 1990 gothic fairytale classic Edward Scissorhands. Starring Johnny Depp (Pirates of the Caribbean, Sweeney Todd) in one of his most iconic roles, the film follows Edward, an unfinished artificial man with scissors for hands, as he’s discovered living alone in a dark mansion and brought into the pastel-colored suburbs by the kind-hearted Peg Boggs, played by Diane Wiest (Parenthood, The Birdcage). As Edward struggles to fit into the conformist community, he forms a tender connection with Peg’s daughter Kim, portrayed by Winona Ryder (Stranger Things, Heathers), setting the stage for a moving and tragic romance.

The film also stars Alan Arkin (Little Miss Sunshine, Argo) as Peg’s husband Bill, Anthony Michael Hall (The Breakfast Club, Weird Science) as the antagonistic Jim, Kathy Baker (Picket Fences, The Age of Adaline) as nosy neighbor Joyce, and horror legend Vincent Price (House of Wax, The Fly) in a poignant final role as Edward’s inventor.

With its unforgettable visual style, Danny Elfman's haunting score, and deeply emotional themes of loneliness, creativity, and acceptance, Edward Scissorhands is one of Burton's most beloved films. Key scenes like Edward trimming hedges and dog hair, the snowy dance moment with Kim, and the heartbreaking ending in the attic have become iconic in pop culture history.
