 Evil Dead II (also known in publicity materials as Evil Dead 2: Dead by Dawn) is a 1987 American black comedy horror film directed by Sam Raimi; it is a sequel to his 1981 horror film The Evil Dead. The film is written by Raimi and Scott Spiegel. Evil Dead II was produced by Robert Tapert and stars Bruce Campbell as Ash Williams, who vacations with his girlfriend to a remote cabin in the woods. He discovers an audio tape of recitations from a book of ancient texts, and when the recording is played, it unleashes a number of demons which possess and torment him.

As with the first film, Evil Dead II has accumulated a large, international cult following. A direct sequel utilizing Raimi’s original premise, Army of Darkness, followed in 1992. It was later followed by a soft reboot and continuation, Evil Dead, which was released in 2013, and a television series, Ash vs Evil Dead, which aired from 2015 to 2018.

And now, Space Goat Productions presents, “Evil Dead 2: Cradle of the Damned”. Ash and Annie are back from Hell, hunting down and killing the thousands of Deadite souls loose on Earth. Thank goodness the Dark Ones show up to, well, open the Gateway that sends our heroes into the Mirror Dimension! Did not see that coming in this wild four-color ride to hell and back!

Story/Spoilers
In issue #3, Ash quickly cuts out her soul and gives it to Regardie, and they begin the cleansing which will remove any trace of her soul. When the ritual is over, Regardie tells Annie and Ash they need to hurry to get out of there, and their spiritual activity won’t go unnoticed for long. The pair begin their journey, but a large black slime-like monster grabs them and overwhelms the two. Ash has a flashback to when he was a child in music class singing Sarasponda and his teacher, Miss Marshall, yelling at him to stop and embarrassing him in front of the entire class. This somehow causes him to break free of the slime monster’s grip. Ash sees that the monster is about to eat Annie, but he yells at it, promising it the Chosen One as a meal. The monster lets Annie go and picks up Ash, and he tells her to run. Annie begins to run and turns around just in time to see the monster bite into Ash. Annie runs until she finds Regardie, who then sends her back home out of the Mirror Dimension.
