The '''''Broken''''' is a short film made in 1993 to promote the ''[[Broken]]'' EP, released in 1992. It is presented as a snuff film, about 20 minutes in length, interspersed with ''Broken''’s four [[Nine Inch Nails music videos|music videos]] and includes its own video for the song "Gave Up" as its conclusion. The movie was filmed and directed by [[Peter Christopherson]]. The PirateBay release notes for the unofficial DVD release assign a ''[[Halo numbers|Halo 5 DVD]]'' designation to that release.
The film involves a young man being kidnapped and made to watch [[Nine Inch Nails]] videos while being tortured. [[Trent Reznor]] once said that the ''Broken Movie'' "...makes 'Happiness In Slavery' look like a Disney movie".
I think that does humanity a disservice because that suggests that you can be horrible and it’s a joke, whereas with what I’m trying to do, if it’s addressing the issue of man’s cruelty to man, there’s no doubt that my intention is to point out how appalling those things are, and what they look like for real. I don’t know what the statistic is of how many people get killed on American TV every second but it’s something horrendous. But because all of those deaths are shown in a plastic way, they don’t prepare people for what death is really like. Really, people in the West have no clue about the reality of death.</blockquote>
