The Leech Woman.

A mysterious old woman named Malla (Estelle Hemsley) claims to have been brought to America 140 years ago by Arab slavers. She claims to be an old woman who claims to know the secret of eternal youth. After discovering her husband only brought her along as a test subject, June has him killed as a sacrifice and becomes young herself. She steals the ring and escapes back to the United States after killing another man. Pretending to be her own 'niece' Terry Hart, she proceeds to keep herself young by killing men for their pineal gland secretions.
