Is this the one where a doctor kills it with his own cancer?

Extract a cancerous liver and then feed the critter. Puhleeeeze!

And it doesn't make a damn bit of sense.

Well, in the movie's universe it does. Earlier we are told that the monster has a metabolism rate 50x ours so presumably the cancer metastasized within seconds and proved fatal to the creature. Which bears a striking resemblance to how the aliens were killed in "War of the Worlds" by the common cold -- wholly coincidental to Corman's work, I'm sure. Meh, the ending seemed to be one of the least silly elements of the movie.

Yeah, they cut his cancerous liver out and feed it to the mutant.
