* JerkassWoobie: Director Poe is a sadist who seems to enjoy making prisoners suffer, even preventing them from dreaming and using a trustee as his personal manservant despite knowing that he won't let him go to parole. On the other hand...He's spent his entire life in the fortress, never leaving his quarters. His feelings towards Karen also seem genuine, [[spoiler:and he appears sincerely shocked when he is shown her betrayal, combined with a VillainousBSOD when he is told that he is being replaced.]] In the end, he's portrayed as much a victim of Men-Tel as the prisoners.
* NightmareFuel: The prison's atmosphere is quite effectively chilling, especially with [[{{Traumatic C Section}} what happens to the pregnant women]], as well as [[HollywoodCyborg the babies]].
