    Welcome to Wakaliwood, Uganda: home of "DA BEST OF DA BEST MOVIES!" and the vanguards of DIY commando cinema! Under the guidance of writer-director-producer Nabwana Isaac Godfrey Geoffrey (IGG) and with producer-star Alan Ssali Hofmanis, this crack crew of self-taught filmmakers and martial arts aficionados produce dozens of gonzo action films in the Kampala ghetto with budgets that rarely exceed $200 USD. Utilizing scrap parts to build computers, machine guns, and a full-sized Huey helicopter, these real-life superheroes inspire more heart, imagination, and soul than a thousand Hollywood blockbusters. AGFA is proud to bring two of the most reckless, out-of-control brain-blasts in the Wakaliwood canon to home video for the first time ever -- Who Killed Captain Alex and Bad Black! And in Uganda's finest storytelling tradition, the films are complemented by the acerbic wit of narrator/VJ (Video Joker) VJ Emmie, who sums up the Wakaliwood experience with a single sentiment: "It is a love story... LOVE OF ACTION!" NOTE: These films were fueled by love and created with DIY equipment. Please approach the technical quality of the transfers with empathy.

        Goddamn FINALLY! I had the pleasure of watching a double feature of these two at a festival in '17 and am eager to revisit them.

              There'll be a couple theatrical screening dates in the US to accompany the release:

              I can't recommend watching these with a crowd enough. Saw them at a screening that started at 1 A.M. and stumbled out at about 4:30. Absolutely priceless.

                          50 minute interview with Alan Hofmanis that covers all the basics but also goes into Wakaliwood's plans for the future. Looks like up next is a kung fu kid's flick!

                            Watched CAPTAIN ALEX for the first time last night - holy shit! It's a completely unique experience, very fun and simultaneously baffling and awesome.

                            I'm not sure if it's been mentioned, but I'd recommend watching it with the VJ commentary (it's the default option) because it's part of the experience and I wonder if some people might think it's a commentary in the traditional sense (it's not) when deciding which way to watch it.

                            Commando!
                            Why would anybody watch a scum show like Videodrome? Why did you watch it, Max?
