Basically I accidentally kicked the cable as it was charging and the port pretty much got ripped out. It shut off instantly and won't turn on. I guess I can try to get it fixed but I'm in need of a new one anyway. What do I need in order to turn my laptops harddrive into an external one so I can salvage some files?

An enclosure.

That's it? I can just stick my HD into that and connect it via USB to my new laptop? Good shit. Thanks.

Yes. But first pop it out and make sure they're SATA drives. One of the connecters looks like ¬ Or maybe it's mirrored. EITHER WAY! If not, you'll have an IDE and need an aditional adapter. Stardock makes one that just slots into their docks.
