<i>Ben Jordan Must Die</i> is the second fan-film based on the popular AGS game series by Francisco "[[Grundislav]]" Gonzalez.

It stars the AGS community and the director's friends from Wallingford, Oxfordshire. The video is directed & edited by <i>Mark "[[m0ds]]" Lovegrove</i>, but as of March 2012 has not been fully released.

The "movie sequel" parodies "straight to DVD" films. It is longer yet more light-hearted and action packed than its predecessor "Le Chateau Macabre." Two storylines occur during the video. It is also a crowd-source funded project thanks to members of the adventure game community and fans of the Ben Jordan series (and Le Chateau Macabre). The sequel's budget was roughly $400 (£250).

At a later date, some kind individuals (including JetXL) gave the project a cash boost, allowing filming in the UK to be 95% completed.


During filming in Italy, one of the on-set jokes was about how a game called "John Sinclair - Voodoo In London" apparently took the Ben Jordan sprite and painted over it to create a new running sprite of John Sinclair. Because of this, Lovegrove decided to include a character called Sinclair in the film who "does a lot of running".
