  • I just farted in a note in perfect symphony with with the intro. It was pretty cool, but I was alone at the time, so I thought I'd tell you about it.

  • lol @ this video xD xD xD

    grow up ppl

  • Alright, this is just nastier then fuck, I didnt want to see some guy's dick get touched by a robot claw!

  • The visionary is compelling, but what did trent reznor actually set out to achieve by making this video?

    It was universally banned, slated by the PRMC and initiated a police investigation.

    The video is a masterpiece, but who out there knows that.

  • i spent so much time listining to broken, broken and fixed were my first 2 cds, fuck man that shit kept me for years, i seen nin live, i fucking had most all they stuff, n theres a fucking film for broken that i never heard about over here in the uk, wtf , wtf, wtf, thank u so much 4 posting tho , proper nice 1|!!!!

  • Wow, as much as that does suit the broken albums's music (which I love) that must be one of the most f**ked up things I have seen...

    That's the first tiem I have seen this movie, as much as I have known about it for a while, it sort of remidns me of the vids for "sin" and "closer" only super violent as well as sexually-twisted.

    What Id's like to know is how the hell did Trent get the ideas for something like that?

    Thanks for uploading this unique piece of NIN's careers...

  • actually THIS is the real Reznor...

    heavy BDSM and lots of violence :)

    Thank you for posting this...I had a bootleg copy of this years ago and an old housemate of mine stole it. So its such a treasure to have been able to watch it again!!

  • i have this whole fucking short movie in good quality...and goddamn! let me say every time i see it it's just really freaking me out!

  • wtf... the whole thing for help me i am in hell doesnt show up. its just black

  • thats how the movie was originally made, just to give the viewer a sort of "what the fuck is going on?!" feeling after "FIST FUCK!!' is repeated. you can only imagine the horrors that poor guy is facing after that.

  • this is unquestionably the heaviest album

  • i listened to the whole album loved it from Pinion to Suck. Even though I dont know alot about them I think that this is their heaviest album.

  • I think this is nin`s best album, a lot of people prefer the downward spiral, but this is my favorite one.

  • hell yeah!

  • Let's see...in the past 2 days I've watched this, the BME Pain Olympics, 2 girls 1 cup, 2 girls 1 finger, and Death By Horse Cock. I think my already fragile mind has now been shattered & warped beyond all repair.

  • Pfft, that's wimpy stuff.

  • if that's wimpy stuff, please tell me what videos/films you define as "utterly hardcore".

    its not an insult, just a question.

  • I didn't say it was 'utterly hardcore' or anything, there's just worse things out there which I'd prefer not to mention.

  • Man, i wish there was more NIN like broken, it's my favorite.

  • people there are much better quality version out there, than u can appreciate reznors masterpeice...

  • where can i find it?

  • Pirate Bay, Trent Reznor uploaded it...

  • thanx, i download it but i can't see it, because is in img format.

  • Use IZarc

  • thanx, again my friend

  • Broken 0:58

  • This is very cool and I do like NIN a lot, but am I the only one who thinks that some of Peter Christopherson' own music would've fit even better with this kind of footage? I mean, play some good ol' Throbbing Gristle while watching this!

  • Indeed! The dark ambient noise at the start sounds a little throbbing gristle-esque.

  • Good fucking lord, I love Trent. <3

  • awesome, yet...

  • Wasn't this directed by Peter Christopherson??

  • Yep, you got it.

  • Hey, for anyone that's interested this videos been posted at a much higher level of quality by this dude gnsumas. I think it's from the newest leak that is rumored to be from Trent himself. I guess the only downside to this is that with every thing like ten times as clear, Happiness in Slavery becomes even more impossible to watch.

  • Thanks for the tip. The only problem with that user's version is how low the sound is.

  • Glad that you liked it. Admittedly the sound is a bit low but the image quality more than makes up for it.

  • Beautiful ;)

  • for something sick and twisted, it was very fuckin creative, I liked how this isn't in print and how the most cencored site in the world has it up, kudos paranoiattackz

  • Love that!! I remember this stuff from College.

  • how did this get past youtube?

  • He should remake this video, then hide it on a DVD. Cant believe it was kept so secret, you know, kept from the public eye.

  • Way to start a video, with a hanging!!

    I "remember" seeing this the first time as a teenager. I think it freaked me out quite a bit

  • it's not real. it's a great film and album, but the man being "killed" is just a preformance artist who's name escapes me.

  • Bob Flanagan

  • The slave machine killed him before he actually died.

  • so crazy that i fount this video on here.

    trent passed copies of this to dominatrix at his parties and parties he went to.

    then copies got out and here you go. the cops actually investigated this and nothing ever come of it. but the scenes of the guy getting tortchered and killed are intirely real!

    nice vid, thank you! :)

    john (whoDied?)

  • No they aren't, that's just a rumour they lifted from the origanal "snuff" film. Nobody died, not really.

  • No they aren't, that's just a rumour they lifted from the origanal "snuff" film. Nobody died, not really.

  • probably one of the most strangely amazingly interesting videos I have ever dared to wath all the way through.

  • Trent should make this an official release on DVD.

    NIN rocks and Trent is GOD.

  • completely phsyco...but excellent. Trent is a genius

  • i dont get it...

  • This is beautiful.

  • the videos are sweet, but the rest....I think it's pretty twited, but all of our concepts of beauty differ greatly, ehhhh??

  • DE QUE SE TRATA ESTE FILM DE NIN

  • that's pretty fucked up. at least he knows how to make a real horror movie

  • Deep, Disturbing, and awesome. What more do you people want?

    And btw, i LOVE LP! But i honestly have to belive nine inch nails cover is 900 times better.

    Why? Because it's the original, and nothing tops the original.

  • theres a few parts where i dont understand whats going on. sometimes i want to no. but on the other hand.... maybe i dont.

  • this is so weird. this and happyness in slavery is the most fucked up shit ive seen for music. even worse than rammsteins videos.

  • this is so weird. this and happyness in slavery is the most fucked up shit ive seen for music. even worse than rammsteins videos.

  • this is alot better than hostel!

    maybe eli roth should of watched this to get a better grasp of what torture really is.

  • This shits fucked up

  • um well ..... all of it? i get that there's a hanging or sumthin, but tis just really blurry and been edited like mad so... :S

  • is it just me or can anyone else not make out what the hell is going on?

  • Just say what part you cant make out and ill tell you.

  • I fucking love this

  • I love NIN and i am a big fan. but after seeing the music video for "Gave Up" (which was the most fucked up and disturbing video i have ever seen. And i am a horror movie fan too. That was worse than Hostel and all the rest.) I am having mixed thoughts about Trent Reznor. Why did he do this? any one know?

  • He was asked to do this by MTV. They originally going to produce this on tv. But, Trent made it to crazy, and so they wouldn't allow it on tv. He then just produced this on a hard to find vhs.

  • okay good. So he didnt make it because he is a twisted fuck lol. Anyway. In Gave Up those are some of the best special effects i have ever seen. If it wasnt Reznor i would think it was real.

  • No, he did do it because he wanted to. True, he video was originally for MTV, but they had no say in regards to the video's content. And why not do it? It's not like it is real. It is very artistic, despite the gore.

  • He also did it to exercise his new freedom after leaving TVT [bastards] records and signing on with Interscope.

  • wow that is fucked up

  • No where near as disturbing as everyone made it out to be, even for that time frame.

  • That would be so much less disturbing if it wasn't real.

  • put in a search for (George W. Hitler speech)

  • REALLY bad quality. /:

  • the quality makes it more realistic.

  • like he said its meant to be like that

  • More realistic. What? Never make a snuff film before?

  • i love this video

  • Wow. Truly creepy.

  • OM-fucking-G i haven't seen this in years....i've been looking for it everywhere to no avail. thanks for posting.

  • yay! havnt seen this since high school! loved it then and now!

    xoxo

  • Is the audio and video supposed to be so off beat? Like, especially in 'Happiness in slavery', it seems like its not right on time?

  • wow. Now I can understand why some people thought it was a real snuff movie when it first came out

  • Wow, very disturbing. interesting, and goes with the music, but holy jesus that was sick. but o well, NIN are the best ever

  • wow. this video was everything i expected it to be. disturbing, disgusting, horriying, and filled with great music. i like how its low quality - like someone else said, it seems more creepy, like its an ameteur video and that it really happened. i love it. ^.^

  • Quite disturbing but fits well with the music; I like the fact that it's so low quality as this enhances the viewing experience - you aren't quite sure of what you are seeing and your mind fills in the missing bits...

  • The low quality actually makes this even sicker.. I saw the dvd quality version on google video and it didn't affect me, maybe because the high quality made it look too fake. :P

  • and incredible band and vid

  • A disturbingly accurate depiction of the human subconscious, blurring fantasy and reality - ultimately the prospect of what might become of an individual if he had no self control.

  • Wow. sick and i love it. shame quality is bad nevertheless brilliant video. Thanx the posting.

  • Awesome movie, but download dvd quality version from piratebay or another torrent site... much better.

  • Dvd quality is lame-o. Looks like a fucking SNL skit, the clarity completely ruins the atmosphere of the movie. ( in my opinion :D )

  • think you will ifnd that this isnt a DVD Rip. The actual broken movie is pretty much unavailable, i believe due to legal reasons (please dont quote me on that, but correct me if im wrong) This i think came from a Video Cassete (you know, those really old rectangular things), hence the bad quality. Unfortunately, yes, it does ruin it a bit, but its a good effort, and kudos should go to the poster for getting his hands on it (more kudos to Trent, for simply being god)

  • if trent reznor had, hypothetically, posted the film under the name seed0 on the pirate bay, then you could, hypothetically, download it in superb dvd quality. but this is purely hypothetical....

  • Hypothetically, that would sound very good!

  • ((:

  • I'm sure one day down the road when he's like 60 er 70, he'll finally realse a 'best of' album and it wont even be a 'best of', it'll be everything he's produced with nine inch nails. Like a box set or something for like ten bucks. I could see it happening.

  • It would be great to get Halo Zero/Infinity or whatever it would be called, mainly because I want closure and I don't have a working VCR. And "we're in this together" is just so bloody expensive for the set....

  • damnz

  • I threw up like a month ago, after the first time i watched this. But now i'm sort of immune to it, except pinion, pinion makes me queasy, i don't know why.

  • pinions fucking gross but i cant sit through i not as much as the other ones though

  • i dont know if the quality is supposed to be this shitty, but i cant tell wtf is going on

  • The quality is bad so it can emulate a real snuff film. It just adds to the creepy factor.

  • FIST FUCK!

  • great video

  • errrr, i have a dvd-quality version of this, and the victim is most definitely MALE. or thats a very, very strange penis-shaped "vagina" that gets cut off...

  • It´s soFUCKING AWESOME I CANNOT SAY.

    yEAR ZERO IS HERE GET READY, YOU ALMOST SLAVES.

    ARE YOU READY FOR subversion?

  • I FUCKIN LOVE U NINE INCH NAILS!!

  • I swaer this is so damn disgusting but thats what makes me love it so damn much!!

  • best snuff film since "the passion of Crist"

    :)

  • Dios..menos mal que no tiene tanta resolución...

    Estoy por vomitar. Buen video igual. NIN la rompe.

  • [continuation] ... so the killer is trying to cleanse the world of filth/sins (there's logical motive behind what this kind of killing involves) and indirectly the killer is assisting the likes of Reznor so that to decrease the amount of flawed existences and the appetite for flesh/sin.

  • "Fist Fuck" is relating to the female "victim" as if she basically is a whore and the song "Wish" kinda touches on the extreme levels of sin/sex such as the ignominious act of such sexual acts as a "fist fuck" and so the "serial killer" here portrayed is victimizing an extreme sinner/whore and serving as the punisher for doing the wrong thing and sinning and ...

  • *mutilation

  • At the end of the video/movie, when he's using the chainsaw ... what he pulls out is actually from her vaginal area. It's not the heart or the stomach ... it's the vaginal/private area between the legs. There's no penis mutiliatin like in happiness in slavery. This one the victim is definitely female.

  • See, that's why ya got to catch the uncensored version some day. Because ... for example, when the "killer" pulls out her tooth, you can hear the victim scream in an obvious female voice. She says like "oh my god". It just so happens that she is bald and with all this censorship, it's tough to tell what gender the "victim" is. But the victim is female.

  • Today's NIN rule more than the early ones ( that's just my opiniom - anyway, you can't beat me *muhahaha* =) ). But if THIS is a CENSORED VERSION..)) F*ck - I think it's kinda stupid to write such light ( yeah, I said "light" ) music for a d*mn heavy visual row =D Nah - I'm glad that they've cut the vid in such way, ( however, not in less degree I'm glad that they have some surprises stocked )

    Yep - NIN rule;)

  • you're such a tool...

  • If you're talking about me - I know) But I don't mind being that way at all))

  • i like meatloaf

  • IT'S THE CENSORED VERSION!!! NO!!!!!!!! The clear version shows "help me i am in hell" and shows her teeth being pulled out and shows at the end the chainsaw the guy uses to chop up her insides while Trent puts his hands over his eyes on the TV cause he can't watch .. the tortue is so extreme.

  • its a dude he's killing btw

  • man this video is great I'm so happy to finally be able to see the whole thing I love nine inch nails

  • This is the greatest music video the world has ever seen... Trent Reznor is the king of alternative rock

  • is this battletoads

  • is this the complete version? nothing edited out at all?

  • nvm... no Help Me I Am In Hell

  • is this a music vid?

  • trent should make his own feature film.

  • great video i just hate all the weak minded idiots who follow rock bands as if they are gods.

  • fuck you. just because somebody is the ultimate power, doesn't mean i think he is a god.

  • This album kicks ass itself, the Digipak is so cool. And if you wanna complain, get off your ass and go buy the damn video, nin's officail website has a body of work page, you can see halos 1-22 (23/24 not addad)

  • its really cool but i kinda wish it was better quality, or atleast ran a bit smoother...

  • this kicks ass

  • "This end and that end whatever amen"

    - EXCERPT FROM 'MEANS TO BEGIN...AGAIN' BY DAVID LEE BUCHANAN In a world like this, twisting and turning is a method of leisure compared to our brutal reality. This footage is an artwork piece that seems dedicated to showing us how brutal that reality may have always been.

    We should feel lucky to breathe a gracious "Fuck you!" to modern Western society and old, fat business men with guns.

    Long live Reznor, and blessed be.

  • That's moronic and your are moronic.

  • thats not the same thing! lol there's only a small part of nudity, not the whole vid! what is going on here is nothing compared 2 a whole video about sex and showing sex.

  • also to add this was done in an "artistic" manner porn isnt usually considered artistsic

  • Ok, first off, I never once said I didn't like it. If I uploaded a guro hentai movie or something it would be allowed on here? That's pretty cool.

  • its called art. if you find that odd close the window.

  • I don't understand how this is allowed on here. Youtube doesn't allow even softcore porn, but yet they allow this video that has full frontal male nudity. Hmm, that's a bit odd.

  • trent.....ahhhh, luv him even more

  • wtf this is not a song Oo its ugly

  • in reply to heleqE3000

    this is alot of songs put together wait after the first 2 minutes, music starts then

  • hi there! thats really an awsome video! for everyone who likes to see it in better quality and including the part that is blackened out here, just open google and type "google movie broken nin" in without the quotation marks!

    enjoy you weird motherfuckers! NIN rules!

  • PS: it`s the very first link that google puts out!

    enjoy!

  • Trent Reznor was creepy back then...>>

    I still love him thou!

    NIN roxs!!!

    If my mom saw this...she'd be like "WTF?!?" lmfao.

  • cool!

  • This is Fucking Awesome, wish it was real though and better quality

  • this seems to fucking real, i think this is a true snuff film

  • Isn't there a lovely irony in all this? Back in the day, Broken was spread on VHS tapes with horrible quality loss, ensuring that everyone who ever saw it will long for a HQ version - and now it's spread on frikkin' YouTube, the Internet medium that makes VHS quality look REAL good.

  • Well, actually, there is a high quality version out there... Trent Reznor uploaded it to some Torrent site I can't remember the name of in DVD form. Even has the video that's blacked out in the fan-leak version. (You really don't wanna see this in high quality though... it's absolutely nauseating. I watched it this morning and almost vomited. No kidding.)

  • nice

  • Is it just me or is the sound out of sync with the video

  • I came.

  • FUKKING AWESOME

  • Funny SICKnut!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!

  • Thanks a lot.. It's sick and twisted, horrible and I'll most likely go to hell for watching it, but it's great. >:D

  • I heard that the parts with the murderer mutilating that guy are real. That's why the video was banned. Reznor got it from some fan and loved it so he put it on Broken, not knowing that it was real. That's just what I heard, but it could be wrong.

    Thanks for posting it.

  • It's not real.

  • yea, still fuckin scary tho lol :)

  • HAVENT SEEN THAT FOR 10 YEARS--as disturbing as i remember--thanks for the post

  • fucking inspiring.

  • hapiness is slavery

  • *Happiness in slavery.

  • theres nothing more fuckd up than yourselves lol!

  • me likey....interesting work of art....but me likey

  • wow this is so hot. especially the video for gave up when his pee-pee gets cut off. TRENT REZNOR YOU ARE A GENIUS!

  • they should do this for the downward spiral to and ooooooooo the fragile would be cool if made into a movie thing like this yeah but they would all probally be really disturbing and violent and odd like this one wonder if the creators of saw have seen this vid

  • no last:'(

  • why did they flag this as inappropriate?

  • NIN was always IN

  • wow after watching this my head feels hot and like my stomach hurts... lol

  • i wonder if this is out in dvd yet?

  • No such luck. It's been rumored to come out for years, so we'll have to settle for this. I don't mind, cause this is SOOO COOL!!!

  • Sweet jezus, somebody is seriously fucked up :- I love it.

  • 20 minutes pure art
