Great site! Planning to spend hours here.

Here's one that's stumped me for years...sorry if it ain't much but it's all I got:

Late '60s, very early '70s sci-fi. In color (I think).

Possibly an Oriental production...Japanese, Philippino, no idea. Could be Italian or Spanish for all I know.

Clearly recall some "space vampire" (?) or "space bodysnatcher" chick with a henchman - tall freaky bald guy in shades - and they went around snatching organs (again: I think that's what they did).

Recall two scenes:

1. Them getting a boxer (?) at the gym...the guy would grab you and they'd shrink you down or something weird. I think that's what they did to him.

2. Also recall clearly a scene in a lab of some sort with lungs or some other organs being kept alive under a glass dome.

I know it sounds like the memories of a six year old's fever dream but I'm sure I saw something like this back in the very early '70s on Chicagoland UHF. Parts of it resemble descriptions of ASTRO-ZOMBIES (which would be the right time period/general flavor) but others don't.

And it is possible the years have smooshed elements of two or more flicks together in my memory, but these scenes are very clear.

That's all I got. Ring any bells?

Thanks in advance!!!

Welcome aboard.  What you describe definitely sounds like "Wild, Wild Planet."

Yeah, I was going to say WILD WILD PLANET too.
