At least as far as movies are concerned, I do not think I have encountered in my watching experience a monster that is motivated - the need to replace worn-out or damaged body parts -- by the same reason.



This accounts even for its reason for deliberately frightening its potential victims.



This body-part replacement also provided a scene (the javelin/head scene) that was I thought was pretty impressive.



Seems to me the closest ideas are found in The Thing and maybe I was a Teenage Frankenstein but in the former, the idea is pretty different and in the latter, it is not nearly as explored.
