The Island of Copycats
D'oh. The makers of a 1979 movie called Parts: The Clonus Horror have sued the studios behind The Island, alleging that the plot of the Michael Bay bomb was taken from their movie. Let's see … Clonus is about clones raised for spare organs who are told that they'll get to go to a utopia called "America." One clone manages to get out and is hunted down. All right, now you make up your mind. (Variety)

I think I actually saw that MST3K.

Scudworth: I first got the idea for Cloney Island after seeing the movie Jurassic Park 3! But my ill-concieved amusement park will be filled with human clones instead of zoo animals! It's as fool-proof as the amusement park in the movie it's self!

I love those films. I read a Simpsons spoof of the idea in a Simpsons comic book where Bart and Milhouse make comments about a McBain film.

Anyways yeah the Island sounds like Logans Run (a good film and also spoofed in the Simpsons).
