A New Kurt Cobain Conspiracy Film Coming in June
As the fully-authorized Kurt Cobain documentary, Kurt Cobain: Montage of Heck, continues to 
generate conversation about the inner workings of the late Nirvana leader, comes word that a new film questioning how Cobain died will be released on June 11.
Titled Soaked in Bleach (yes, a line taken from “Come As You Are”), the Benjamin Statler-directed film further examines the notion that Cobain didn’t commit suicide and was in fact murdered. Of course, Courtney Love plays a central role in this story.
“[Soaked in Bleach] reveals the events behind Kurt Cobain’s death as seen through the eyes of Tom Grant, the private investigator that was hired by Courtney Love in 1994 to track down her missing husband (Kurt Cobain) only days before his deceased body was found at their Seattle home,” reads a synopsis penned by Statler. “Cobain’s death was ruled a suicide by the police (a reported self-inflicted gunshot wound), but doubts have circulated for twenty years as to the legitimacy of this ruling, especially due to the work of Mr. Grant, a former L.A. County Sheriff’s detective, who did his own investigation and determined there was significant empirical and circumstantial evidence to conclude that foul play could very well have occurred. The film develops as a narrative mystery with cinematic re-creations, interviews with key experts and witnesses and the examination of official artifacts from the 1994 case.”
In 1998, this concept was originally tackled in the highly controversial Nick Broomfield documentary, Kurt & Courtney.
