'''''For info on the actual music videos, see the individual song pages.'''''
The film opens with the aggressor walking along a platform until he stops on a trap door, the camera shows a noose around his neck and shows an eerie expression on the man’s face as the trap door opens and he begins to fall. The camera then cuts to views of a neighbourhood passing by as it is filmed from a car window until it slows down when a man (the victim) is caught on camera. The next is image is that of the victim tied to a chair and sat in front of a television, where he is forced to watch NIN videos.
==="Gave Up"===
The film ends with a video for "Gave Up", different to from the one on ''Closure'', with the music simply dubbed over the storyline of the movie. At this point in the film, the victim is suspended from the ceiling and is repeatedly attacked by the perpetrator with a blade, and then with a blowtorch; the killer then slices off the victim's penis with a razor. The camera-work at this part closely resembles that of an amateur snuff film, while there is interspersed footage of the police searching through the basement and finding remains of previous victims. (At one point, a sign that reads "TRESPASSERS WILL BE EATEN" is shown.) Finally, the film cuts back to the victim strapped on the table, as the murderer hacks his limbs off with a chainsaw, proceeds to presumably rape him, and ultimately slices his chest open to consume his heart.
The movie then cuts back to the execution scene shown at the beginning of the film, where the killer is being dropped through the trap door, falling through a seemingly immensely long tunnel, until the rope tightens suddenly. The movie ends with the inverted version of the ''Broken'' album cover, with the background black, and a mirrored "n" character filled with the original orange background texture. After roughly a minute of silence and a black screen, the severed head of the killer is shown flying across the screen.
The movie also includes a copyright notice saying at the end, "1993 © [[Interscope Records]]", implying that the movie, at some point, was meant for an actual release. '''***END SPOILERS***'''
