In 1992, Nine Inch Nails released the "Broken" EP. It was followed in 1993 by a short film, roughly 20 minutes in length, known as the "Broken Movie". The movie wove Broken's four music videos together via a violent "snuff film" and included its own video for the song "Gave Up" as its conclusion. Due to its extreme graphic content, the Broken Movie was never officially released. But in Christmas 2006, NIN secretly released it on BitTorrent along with the free 2 DVD set closure deluxe prototype.

I've seen this film via clips on Youtube and I have to say, it grossed the crap out of me. I didn't know whether to scream or cry.It perfectly suits the "Ultra-fast chunk of death" that is the album Broken. Its filled with grotesque images of torture,murder and necrophilia (dead people sex. in case you didn't know.). Whatever was going through Reznor's head at the time of recording comes out in this violent snuff film that makes Saw look like a Disney movie.Its on you tube a lot, thats the easiest way to see it, though with horrible quality. Try and find it on peer to peer sites or NIN fan sites. REZNOR, PLEASE RELEASE THE DAMN THING!!

"Broken" is an infamous Nine Inch Nails pseudo-snuff video that it's not as shocking as it's reputed to be.In fact "Despair" by SPK easily tops it with its authentic footage of autopsies and corpse abuse.Basically a psychotic man picks up a teenager.The kid is trussed up in the killer's cellar.Then the murderer,who wears plastic mask like the snuff filmmakers from "Last House on Dead End Street",begins to cut his victim with a straight razor.After that he burns the teen with a blowtorch,cuts off his penis,beats,sodomizes and finally dismembers the kid with a chainsaw.Admittedly "Broken" is pretty graphic in the gore department and it may upset some people,but I have seen much more shocking video clips including infamous Necrophagia "Blood Freak" and "Burning Moon Sickness" videos."Broken" is directed to look like a home video with very amateurish hand held camera-work and sloppy editing.Still the gore effects are rather convincing,especially castration scene.If you are a fan of Trent Reznor or gore-hound give it a look.

oh my god... i am a huge fan of nine inch nails, and have always wanted to see this... and i finally have, and nothing has ever left me more disturbed... after watching it, i felt very uncomfortable, and it got to me in a way nothing else ever has... genuinely frightening... i would love to see NIN do more stuff like this... maybe a WITH_TEETH movie???.... but nothing could be as scary as this movie... i don't think I've ever seen anything this scary... the torture scenes are brutally honest and will leave you breathless and wanting to wrap your arms around the person you love more than anything and keep them there forever... clearly inspired by the olden days Texas Chainsaw Massacre-esquire style and story and clearly influenced other simmilarly themed movies like House of 1000 Corpses... very very scary....

What can I say it's a morbid masterpiece! Trent Reznor is one of the greatest musicians of our time and this film puts all his demented, twisted work to the fullest. To put in one word it's truly AMAZING!!!
