What’s the Truth Behind Kurt Cobain’s Death? New Trailer for Docudrama ‘Soaked in Bleach’

Directed by Benjamin Statler, the trailer for the docudrama Soaked in Bleach is more than compelling enough for me to want to watch the entire film as it…

…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. 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.

I’m sure the film ends with a big question mark and, based on the trailer, it certainly seems to have an agenda rather than look at the case from both sides, but perhaps there are some serious questions that need to be raised rather than conspiracy theories pointing to Cobain’s death being something more than a suicide.

There is no word yet on when the film will be released and I expect it will have at least a couple festival appearances before it does, but I’m ready right now to give it a look. Send it over.

Check out the trailer below.
