In The Shack, which is out on DVD and Blu-ray May 30th, Sam Worthington (Avatar) is Mack Phillips, a man who is holding onto his past and has suffered more than the average human. He’s had an emotionally turbulent past with his father and now one of his children has been abducted during a family camping trip.
The Shack is not for the faint of heart as it deals with deep issues that will sit with you for some time. It turns out that Mack’s child is indeed murdered and Mack must now try and deal with this. Academy Award Winner Octavia Spencer and Tim McGraw are put in Mack’s path to try and help him, albeit with some divine intervention. Mack receives a note in his mailbox that is signed “Papa” that tells him that he has been missed and to meet at the Shack.
