I just watched 2010's Who Killed Captain Alex: Uganda's First Action Movie. This movie is unlike any other film I've seen. At first this may seem like your typical b-tier or c-tier movie, but if you consider the context then this is so much more. This film had a budget of a meager $85 (no, it wasn't $200) and it was made in the impoverised, undeveloped nation of Uganda. These people wanted to have fun and create a kick-ass film. There's geniune love and passion behind this film.
The movie is free to watch on YouTube.

Wakaliwood has come a long way since then. They have better equipment now, among other things.
EDIT: what's interesting is that I knew about this film since 2017 thanks to the Ugandan Knuckles meme, yet for some unexplained reason I never bothered to watch this film until yesterday. Huh. Speaking of which, Ugandan people (at least some of them) like the Ugandan Knuckles meme.
Yes, I know the original trailer (which was uploaded in 2010 on YouTube) went viral to the point that Ray William Jonhson talked about it but for some reason all that went past my radar at the time. I found about the movie seven years after it was originally released and two years after the full film was posted on YouTube.
