7. It blends Greek mythology with science fiction

The name of the movie, Prometheus, is based on a legend from Greek mythology that revolves around Prometheus stealing fire from the Gods and giving it to humans, resulting in him being punished in an excruciating manner, whereby he is tied to a rock, and eagles peck at his liver forever. Prometheus is, therefore, seen as the creator of mankind, and the movie delves into how humans were created.
