Prometheus - Final Trailer and Story Synopsis



In the distant future, two superpowers control Earth and fight each other for all the solar system’s natural resources. When one side dispatches a team to a distant planet to terraform it for human colonization, the team discovers an indigenous race of bio-mechanoid killers.

Ridley Scott, director of ‘Alien’ and ‘Blade Runner,’ returns to the genre he helped define. With PROMETHEUS, he creates a groundbreaking mythology, in which a team of explorers discover a clue to the origins of mankind on Earth, leading them on a thrilling journey to the darkest corners of the universe. There, they must fight a terrifying battle to save the future of the human race.

Seeing glimpses of the Jockey walking evokes a subtle terror in my mind.

I'm getting a sort of "The Thing" vibe from this trailer, ancient evil in an isolated location, the crew sacrifices themselves to stop it only for someone else to stumble across the remains and start the whole process over again.

Very glad to see more backstory in this trailer. I like the way the main character has spent her life chasing these symbols and when she discovers the source it all turns bad - just like it would in real life.
