Nine Inch Nails: Closure Trailers

Closure is the 12th official Nine Inch Nails release. It consists of music videos interspersed with snippets from educational films, as well as exclusive footage shot by Peter Christopherson including antics by Nine Inch Nails and their tour guests: Marilyn Manson, Jim Rose Circus and David Bowie. Originally scheduled to be released on DVD in 2004, the disc appeared on internet torrent sites in 2006, including behind-the-scenes footage of the "Closer" video with commentary by Mark Romanek. Fans speculate that Reznor may have been the source of this leak.

This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

TrueHello

Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

Myron Clemons

A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

This video is a masterpiece in every sense of the word.This man (Reznor) shows us the human nature like nobody else does. He can make you feel anger, happiness, hate and love all at the same time while he is at the stage. This is what an artist is, a man that knows and understands the violent, sick, compassionate and pathetic nature of humans and creates something beautiful out of it. You can see through that man's eyes while watching this video or listening to his music and if you feel the connection with at least a small part of it, you will understand what a great artist he is.This video is sometimes shocking and while the sound quality isn't that great (or maybe that adds to its favor) this is still a must have for any NIN fan.If you are one of the people that believe good music is what is shown in MTV most of the time and if you prefer not to know about the "ugly" part of the world to be comfortable with your life, don't watch this; but if you are a person comfortable with what we (humans) are and you are not afraid to feel you must buy this, you won't regret it.

truly "closure" is classic in the world of nine inch nails fans. at the time it was released, it showed behind the scene's footage of what happened while on tour and unique performances. it also showed the world their first glimpse of long rumoured videos and uncut versions of the videos we had all scene on mtv but were forced to see censored versions, examples of this would "down in it" with trent's "dead" body, and just about anything considered offensive in "closer" that was not nudity.this two tape set is for the most devoted nin fan of course. i would be remiss if i didn't mention that there is some stuff on this tape set that most would consider offensive, mr. lifto on tape 1 for example and the videos for "sin", "happiness in slavery" and "help me i am in hell". it is probably a given that the first time you watch this and run across these moments, you will be shocked and perhaps disgusted, but after multiple views...you might look upon it as unique individual pieces of art...well except mr. lifto...that is just weird hehe.tape 1 contains the live stuff and behind the scenes footage. some might gripe about the poor quality of the audio or video during some of the performances, but in a way it is refreshing and different. perhaps the jewels of that first tape might be "something i can never have" & "hurt" with david bowie. tape 2 contains all the videos nin had done up to '97 [except "burn"]. all presented uncut and inter-connected with odd footage from old films. it is hard to pick out what makes the second tape so good, although in my opinion its "gave up", "help me i am in hell" & "eraser" but thats me.but there is one thing that could be said about this video after watching it: it's that trent reznor and what he has down with nine inch nails both musically and visually is a testament to how much of a creative individual he is.

Oh yes.. love that video to death though it makes me grab my testes to make sure they are still there. I would absolutely kill to have Closure on DVD. I'm a huge []\[] [] []/[] fan. Trent Reznor is my christ.The video which so terribly disturbed the previous poster, Happiness In Slavery, is about the terrible consequences of submittance and conformity. Kinda reminds me of the atmosphere for The Matrix.The actor is mr. Bob Flanagan a performance actor whom Trent hired to be in the video.The central theme depicts a nakid man (Flanagan) strapped to a torture machine looking much like a dentist chair being systematically disembowled. He is then further eviscerated alive by a 3 fingered metallic claw.The brutal piece climaxes with close ups of the victim's nipples being torn off and a wooden board smacking him in the testicals.The man's clothes are burned and his remains are fed into a grinder to feed the flowers. Trent walks in, lights a candle, sets it on the sink and prepares to go thru what the man before him did. A shocking and interesting video artwork. Of course MTV banned this video (Yet they had no problems airing gun brandishing Gansta Rap videos) and the Brittish censors ordered it to never be shown or duplicated in that country again. -BlazeFoxKitsune =^.^>

"Closure," an extensive video compilation released in November 1997 by Nine Inch Nails, contained two tapes. The first tape follows the infamous group around on a 1994-96 tour. The second tape contains all Nine Inch Nails videos ever produced, except for one particular video, for the song from the Oliver Stone movie, "Natural Born Killers." (The name of this song is called "Burn.")The video segments are sometimes too disturbing and uncomfortable to watch (the videos for "Sin," and "Happiness In Slavery" come to mind.) The rest of the videos, as bizarre as they may be, are slyly connected by the director by interesting, if not partially disturbing segments.At its best, tape two of "Closure," seems to have been produced without any compromising of aesthetic goals. At its worst, "Closure" proves to be too sickening to be enjoyed. Keep the remote control handy, because you'll want to fast forward through a few of the clips. Some "watchable" videos include "Head Like a Hole," "Down In It," "Wish," "Eraser/Hurt/Wish (Live)," "March of the Pigs," and "The Perfect Drug."Even if you can stomach extremely disturbing stuff, this one might cause a second or two of crawling skin. Enjoy, NINnies.
