I will dig out my Bad Movie interests for this now.

Back in I think The Early 80's, there was a film by Larry Buchanan called Down On Us about the conspiracy of the deaths between Jimi, Janis, and Jim. To those who don't know about Larry Buchanan, he was a Texas-based film maker who specialized in films like the Trail of Lee Harvey Oswald (Dull, but thought provoking if you stay awake), Goodnight Sweet Marylin (Monroe), Hughes and Harlow, and others while not working on cheap flicks like The Naked Witch. The only film I seriously have stayed put for was The Other Side of Bonnie and Clyde, which was more photographs than re-creations making it more believable. Sadly, there was an interest in Conspiracies that did not match too well with his low-budgets, and on Down On Us, he created something that Bad Film fans consider jaw-dropping. I have not yet seen it, it's pretty hard to find, but I have a feeling that it's the Bad Film you're thinking about.
