Edward Scissorhands

 Edward Scissorhands was released nationally on December 14th, 1990, a week after a limited release. 

Depp and Ryder

Directed by Tom Burton and written by Burton and Caroline Thompson. Starring Johnny Depp, Winona Ryder, Diane Wiest, Anthony Michael Hall, Alan Arkin and Vincent Price. 

Stan Winston was nominated
for an Oscar for make-up

One of the actors to turn down the role of Edward was Gary Oldman. Let’s all take a moment to consider this alternate reality.

Filmed in the Tampa Bay Area of Florida, particularly in Lutz. 

Lutz, FL

Yep. That’s Lutz all right. 

The “Edward Scissorhands” house recently went up for sale. A local couple was chosen from a viral list of potential buyers from around the world. The couple are fans of the movie with the gentleman actually working on set washing dishes. They are in the process of turning the house into a shrine and museum of sorts. 

It appears as if they are running into a few legal issues and have a gofundme set up for legal fees. You can find them on TikTok or Instagram at “officialscissorland”.
