A scientist builds an animated human being -- the gentle Edward . The scientist dies before he can finish assembling Edward, though, leaving the young man with a freakish appearance accentuated by the scissor blades he has instead of hands. Loving suburban saleswoman Peg discovers Edward and takes him home, where he falls for Peg's teen daughter . However, despite his kindness and artistic talent, Edward's hands make him an outcast.
