Evil Dead II (also known as Evil Dead 2: Dead by Dawn and Evil Dead II, the Sequel to the Ultimate Experience in Grueling Terror) is a sequel to the movie The Evil Dead by Sam Raimi and starring Bruce Campbell. The story is largely a re-hash of the first film, but more humorous, displaying a Three Stooges influence.
There is some question as to whether the film is a sequel or a remake, since the first film ends with Ash (Campbell) apparently being run down by the invisible demon which killed all the other characters in the first film. The film is, in fact, a sequel, because after the recap at the beginning (which would have to be considered a retcon of the story) Ash is hit by the same invisible force and the story continues from there.
The film was followed by Army of Darkness, which continues with Ash's adventures in the medieval fantasy world into which he was transported at the end of Evil Dead II.
