Now I fear that my wife has become host to a Kandarian Demon.
~ Professor Knowby

The Kandarian Demon, also known as "The Evil" and "The Force", also called "Rotten Apple Head" and "The Evil Force", is the main antagonist of the Evil Dead franchise. It is an evil supernatural entity that was the living spirit of the accursed spellbook known as the Necronomicon Ex-Mortis. It is the arch-nemesis of Ash Williams.

The Kandarian Demon is the alpha/leader of the Deadites, due to Deadites referring to themselves in plural and when manifesting as Evil Ash.

The Evil Force later took over as leader of the Deadites Army (also called the Army of Darkness) during its war against mankind in the 14th century.

Its demon vocal sound effects were provided by Frank Welker, who also voiced Thumper in A Bug's Life, Megatron in Transformers: The Game, the Red Death in How to Train Your Dragon and a possessing Unicron in Transformers Prime Beast Hunters: Predacons Rising, and Shockwave in Transformers: Dark of the Moon.

What Makes It Pure Evil?[]

In General[]

  • Despite being a demon, it has clear moral agency and is in control over its actions.
  • It would have destroyed the world if it weren't for the Dark Ones to imprison the beast.
  • It possessed and mutilated many dead people throughout the centuries.
  • All the actions the Deadites committed throughout the franchise count as the Demon's crimes, given that they are all part of the same hivemind of the demon.

The Evil Dead[]

  • Grabbed Cheryl in the forest, possessed a tree , and made a sharp tree branch penetrate her crotch, essentially torturing and raping her. Cheryl was traumatized after the whole ordeal.
  • Possessed Cheryl into a Deadite, and, when possessing Cheryl, stabbed Linda in the foot with a pencil, injuring her.
  • Mocked Ash of how his friends are dying and that nothing can save them.
  • When possessing Linda, she mocked Ash, saying he won`t live, saying "We`re gonna get you!"
  • Pretended that Linda and Cheryl were free from possession, even remarking to Ash that they are okay, before grabbing Ash and mocking him, thinking it is fun.
  • Sadistically made illusions of blood everywhere around the basement of the cabin, frightening Ash.
  • When Ash came outside to bury a possessed Linda, she scratched Ash terribly, wounding him badly.
  • Beat up Ash terribly with a stick while possessing Cheryl.
  • Attacked Ash in the woods, briefly possessing him but was forced to leave him as the sun rose.

Evil Dead II[]

  • Possessed Ash`s hand, making it turn against him, forcing him to cut off his hand with a chainsaw.
  • Possessed a number of people, turning them into Deadites.
  • Possessed Ash`s severed Hand, eventually killing Professor Knowby`s daughter.

Army of Darkness[]

  • The Kandarian Demon traveled back in time with Ash, , making his life a living hell before creating an alternate ego of Ash, Evil Ash.
  • Through Evil Ash, the Kandarian Demon led an army of skeletons against the natives of Kandar Castle, killing many soldiers.

Ash vs Evil Dead[]

  • Throughout the Evil Dead series, the Kandarian Demon did brutal acts, mutilating bodies, possessing them, mocking people, and went so far as to commit genocide on humanity and destroying buildings, all while trying to destroy Ash.

Trivia[]
