Movie Info

K-11 follows Raymond Saxx Jr. (Goran Visnjic), a powerful record producer who wakes from a drug-induced blackout to find himself locked up and classified "K-11." Plunged into a nightmarish world ruled by a transsexual diva named Mousey (Kate del Castillo), Raymond is truly a fish out of water. Complicating matters are a troubled young transgender named Butterfly (Portia Doubleday), a predatory child molester (Tommy 'Tiny' Lister) and the ruthless Sheriff's Deputy, Lt. Johnson (D.B. Sweeney).

A sordid prison drama that struts an unsteady line between full-on camp and "Oz"-style Darwinism.

"K-11" has the makings of a cult movie campfest but little of the authentic wit, edge or outré vision it would take to get there.

Points for niche audaciousness, but that's all.

Like an on-the-nose parody of Lee Daniels directing an episode of Oz, K-11 is a pulpy, tone-deaf mess of confused directorial intent ...

Pulpy prison yarn lacks conviction.

Who knew there was a special K-11 inmate division for LGBT criminals to run the dormitory, take drugs, dress up and have sex with the guards?

A pulpy, psychologically hollow and emotionally indiscernible mélange of phony jailhouse intrigue and showy gender-politicking, with a bit of anal rape sprinkled in.

Stuck in that valley of being bad, but not so bad that it's actually good.

I'm not quite sure why Stewart felt compelled to make this movie, but to her credit I guess, she commits to the story she's telling, as lurid, unpleasant and ultimately pointless as it may be.

Jules Stewart makes a confident directorial debut. Although the screenplay comes perilously close at times to sensationalizing or stereotyping the characters, Stewart wisely resists.

It careens from one tonal extreme to the next, uncertain about whether it wants to be a gritty drama, camp artifact, or violent prison-sploitation flick.

Audience Reviews for K-11

Bit of a trashy prison drama. No real bite. No real purpose. Confused plotting. It seems its intent is aimed at Oz, but it has none of the threat.
April 26, 2013
Pushes the viewer outside their comfort zone and twists with the contradictions and juxtapositions incarcerated but noble, generally guilty but specifically innocent, femininity within a male point of view and honor among criminality. Visnjic is an Alice in a Hell's Wonderland.
