The Human Duplicators is an American science fiction film released in 1965 by independent company Woolner Brothers Pictures Inc.

The plot involves a giant alien named Dr. Kolos (Richard Kiel) who is dispatched to Earth from a faraway galaxy on orders to create android doppelgängers by employing the scientific services of hypnotized cyberneticist Prof. Vaughn Dornheimer (George Macready). This mission of colonization is thwarted not by the FBI agents, sent to investigate, but by him falling in love with the scientist's beautiful blind niece Lisa (Dolores Faith).
Released in some foreign markets as Space Agent K1, the film was released on VHS as Jaws of the Alien to cash in on Kiel's later appearances as Jaws in the James Bond movies.
The Human Duplicators was featured in a season 4 episode of Mystery Science Theatre 3000.
