The movie with the bodies lined up on slabs stretching off into the distance was "The Questor Tapes", which was just mentioned a few days ago. The "gaurdians" were androids, charged with protecting the Earth from itself until society was mature enough to survive alone. This was a pilot for a series, by, I think, Gene Rodenberry, and aired in about '72. I remember a good deal of the plot, if anyone is interested, but it was largely a secret agent style movie with the US gov't trying to track down the escaped android, which of course had all the normal android traits: super human strength, capable of predicting random events through rapid calculation, etc. Hope this helps, Don Schmitz
