Based on what we know before we start watching the movie we are inclined to think, 'oh look...the aliens are spreading their DNA, they are going to take this humanoid lookig guy and change him in to a human'.
But they don't change him. They KILL HIM.
And if you watch the animation of what's happening to his DNA it is not CHANGING so it can be spread through the eco-system. It is BREAKING DOWN. IT IS BEING DESTROYED.
So this 'they're using this guy to spread their benevolent dna improvement through the planet' is WRONG.
But who is this guy? Is he an engineer doing some religious sacrifice? Is he a humanoid who was changed to be like the engineers who is now being killed by him?
If that's the case and the engineers made us, why don't WE look like THEM?
This is frankly, a story-telling mess. Ridley, Ridley. Exposition has never been his strong suite. Blade Runner looks great (classic) but the plot is a mess.
Oh well. I guess we'll have to get our answers from 'Ancient Aliens' on tv.
