The LEGO Clan is a 2005 action brickfilm in three individual parts by Jonny Paquette. It follows Vic, a member of the titular LEGO Clan, who accepts one last job following the death of his partner.[1] It was Paquette's first brickfilm project, and he has since expressed that he holds the trilogy in low regard.[2]
The film's three parts were made available to download over the first half of 2005,[3][4] and a compiled full version was uploaded to Archive.org in July 2005.[5] The film was uploaded to YouTube in 2006, but Paquette's own upload of Part II was removed for "inappropriate content". In the early years of YouTube, The LEGO Clan was one of a number of brickfilms that became popular in part for their bloody and gory content.
Plot[]
Part I[]
Two members of the LEGO Clan await a delivery of drugs in a public building. A man arrives, but confesses that he kept trying the drugs until the bag was empty. The clan members shoot the man and the witnesses before leaving. On their way out, they shoot whoever they see and force one civilian to help them acquire a vehicle. When they return to their boss, he tasks them with assassinating the members of a rival clan who can be found at the Dark Chamber nightclub.
Along the way, the two men stop to eat, and one discusses the possibility of switching to The Lucifer Clan, which is run by a "Satanic psycho" but would pay well. At that moment, Lucifer enters the restaurant, and begins killing people to get the seats he wants. The LEGO Clan members make a quick exit & head to the Dark Chamber. Inside, they are spotted, and one of them is shot dead. The other, Vic, becomes enraged and shoots everyone in sight, clearing out the club.

Part II[]
Following the death of his partner, Vic becomes a shut-in for two months. One day, his clan boss arrives to try to drag him out of retirement. Vic agrees to come back for one final mission, as the boss is being threatened by the Lucifer Clan over drug money owed. Vic is introduced to a killer, Lenny, and a cannibal, Adam, and the three of them are sent to rob a bank to acquire the drug payment. Following a shootout, they get the money, but when they return, the boss has a drug overdose and is taken away by paramedics, dying.
Vic is disturbed by all the deaths around him and goes on a joy ride to clear his head. When back at the base, he finds fellow clan members slaughtered and messages from the Lucifer Clan saying the time is up. Vic vows to get revenge.
Part III[]
At the Lucifer Clan's headquarters, Lucifer catches his wife checking out a new masked recruit, and he threatens them both. Meanwhile, Vic arrives at a store owned by an ex-Lucifer Clan member. Lucifer's wife meets with the masked man alone, and invites him to come to her place later. Vic tortures the store owner into giving up the location of the Lucifer Clan HQ, and he then rings up Adam to request his accompaniment on the vendetta.
