Come along in Edward Scissorhands-inspired fancy dress - prize for best costume!
In a castle high on top of a hill lives an inventor's greatest creation - Edward, a near-complete person. The creator died before he could finish Edward's hands; instead, he is left with metal scissors for hands. Since then, he has lived alone, until a kind lady called Peg discovers him and welcomes him into her home. At first, everyone welcomes him into the community, but soon things begin to take a change for the worse.
The film is framed around a grandmother telling her grandchild why it always snows on Christmas. The second half of the film is set at Christmas, and after an annual Christmas party goes awry, Kim (a fabulous Winona Ryder) finds Edward crafting an ice sculpture of an angel in the backyard, creating a beautiful “snowfall” that brings a bit of magic to the otherwise mundane backdrop of the surrounding town.
