The Shack is a 2017 Christian film directed by Stuart Hazeldine with Destin Daniel Cretton as one of the producers and writers. The film is based on a book of the same name and stars Sam Worthington, Octavia Spencer, Graham Greene (Actor), Radha Mitchell, Aviv Alush, Alice Braga, Sumire Matsubara and Tim McGraw. The plot centers around a man named Mackenzie, whose already distant relationship with God becomes further strained when an unspeakable tragedy strikes his family, so the Almighty himself invites him to the titular shack for a face-to-face meeting. | |

A Form You Are Comfortable With | |
| The Shack / int_106f1a77 | comment |
A Form You Are Comfortable With: "Papa" explicitly takes the form of a woman because S/He knows that Mackenzie can't relate well to a father at the moment. | |

Karma Houdini | |
| The Shack / int_a70223 | comment |
Karma Houdini: The serial killer who murdered Missy gets away with the murders with no consequences for his actions. Averted in the book when it's revealed that they were able to find him and arrest him. Also, Mackenzie gets away with poisoning his father at the age of 13. He was also never arrested or discovered for it either. | |

Abusive Parents | |
| The Shack / int_b11ac9f5 | comment |
Abusive Parents: Mackenzie's abusive father is the reason he has difficulty viewing God the Father as a benevolent figure. The fact that his father was a church elder makes the situation worse. | |
