...other than his victims - and God. There needed to be some reckoning for Suharto, not necessarily for the sake of justice or revenge, but because a young democracy like Indonesia needs to have a sense of what is right and what is wrong. Because Suharto did both good and evil, that distinction has been blurred. His regime is full of buts: yes, there was corruption and abuse of power, but the economy grew - that sort of thing. As a result, Indonesia lacks self-confidence and self-respect. That, more than anything else, is the legacy left by Suharto...

This is, of course, a site devised by Screen Gems, the Sony subsidiary that produced Vacancy, When a Stranger Calls and sequels to Hostel, 8mm, Sniper, Resident Evil and I Know What You Did Last Summer. So Sick is pretty much the in-house genre, and the superior moral tone of Intractable is just another twisted prank. The movie says we're all rotten and weak for watching the very form of lurid stuff it put on the screen...
