"Torn Apart" is a machinima film made using the Quake game engine. It was made by United Ranger Films in 1996. At the time of the film's creation, The Rangers (as they were known) were virtually the only group making movies in Quake (the term 'Quake Movies' or 'QMovies' became a common name for them). The film was created in the short period between the production of URF's "Ranger Gone Bad" series, and is a short experiment utilising a "Quake" patch that allows players to become the monsters featured in the game. In this case, the film follows the story of one of the Rangers marines in an encounter with a fiend. The film was followed by "Torn Apart 2" and the unfinished "Torn Apart 3".
