Ok, Movie/TV Buffs.....

Looking for:

Late 70's.  Late-night.  Movie on TV. 

Cloning, organ transplants, organ farming, consciousness, self-awareness.....

name of movie:  SOMA

I think. 

No, it's not the anime that IMDB hands me.

Any ideas?



ETA:  Some bits of  The Resurrection of Zachary Wheeler are familiar...I mainly remember one 45-second clip.  That HAS been in this one, but...might just be very similar to something else.  They use the term Soma and make the point that it is the Greek word for "body," which is something else I recall.  But I'm certain I saw the word SOMA as the title screen!  Maybe it got re-named either for TV or later for something else?

do you remember any actors at all?

Also, I found this:

Clonus. 1979. Might be the one you're talking about?

Gonna try it, thanks -- I don't recall any actors, I was like 16 at the time and knew I'd see it again. Hmph! Silly TV, not doing that things I think it should!

Drive answer...Coma film made of a Robin Cook book.

Totally different. Seen that one also. Thanks though!

Soylent Green?

WELL, that IS people! But these are clones.

Any chance you are thinking of Brave New World? The drug in it was called Soma, and there was cloning in it.

[zianuray.livejournal.com]

Nope, seen that since also. Nice try, tho -- and see answer just above yours!

See you The First Weekend -- though we'll be just patrons. Wanna meet The Puppy?

[motherpockets.livejournal.com]

Sure!

Did you ever figure it out? Am curious now. :P

Clonus, AKA Parts: The Clonus Horror. Got the MYSTERY SCIENCE THEATER 3000 treatment, but, really, for a Sci-fi horror flick, it's worst sin was that it was done onthe very cheap. It was, in its way, more honest that the Michael Bay remake (not that he or the studio would admit it) The Island.

I'm thinking Resurrection must be it -- it had the small bit I remembered.
