Did you ever notice that the ending of "Blade Runner" has parallels to the crucifixion of Jesus (the wound through Hauer's hand, he dies for our sins of technology against humanity, etc.). Deckard only learns to live when he sees how much the replicants are fighting to stay alive.
There are lots of religious symbols in there. Nice piece of film-making.
"Bladerunner" was also the visual inspiration for virtually all of William Gibson's "cyberpunk" novels, beginning with "Neuromancer".
