The hard-line Islamic Defenders Front is preparing to hold a rally in front of the offices of film production house K2K, which made the horror movie "Pocong Mandi Goyang Pinggul" ("Shrouded Corpse Bathing While Hip-Shaking") starring American adult film actress Sasha Grey, due to what they say is the film's pornographic content.

"Jakarta's Islamic Defenders Front (FPI) will rally at the K2K office on Jalan Dr. Saharjo at 12:30 p.m. We have watched the movie and it's porn!" Salim Alatas, an FPI leader, told news portal Detik.com.

Salim also accused the production house of having no regard for public morality as well as using sensationalism for material gain.

"[We're rallying] because they pushed porn stars to act in Indonesian movies and we are opposed to their decisions. We want to cleanse Indonesia of porn stars, international and local, to guard the nation's morality," Salim said.

He added that FPI planned to bring 100 protestors to the office to pelt it with rocks and eggs.

"We will bring rocks and eggs to throw at the office. If the production house won't stop flying porn stars to Indonesia, we will fly him [KK Dheeraj, the movie's producer] back home to India," he said.
