“At about the time the FBI was called in on the case, which was about a year after the film was found, the Chicago police got a tip that helped identify the victim in the case. As it turned out it, his name was Trent Reznor.

You may not have heard of Trent Reznor — I know I hadn’t — but if you’re a kid you may have a picture of him on your wall.”

This is a thoroughly ridiculous Hard Copy segment about the faux snuff film in Nine Inch Nails’ “Down In It” video from 1989. It’s a great little time capsule. I really love the way they harp on the fact that Reznor had jewelry….gasp…in his NOSE.

“I know…it’s more like Nine Inch NOISE.” Oh snap!
