The recap thing at the beginning shows the car getting sucked into the portal/vortex/whatever.
I’m not warning anyone away from watching Evil Dead 2, that’s a good movie. But I do think you can watch Army of Darkness alone and understand what’s going on. The deadites might not make much sense, but ED2 doesn’t explain them either; asshole ghosts just possess people sometimes to yell about eating souls or whatever, apparently entirely for fun.
It was just a joke about the car falling from the sky.
As I said, it’s more about Ash’s development for me. Over three movies, he becomes more of a caricature and I am not sure how much people can accept where he’s at in the 3rd movie going in blind. There’s no arc to him in AoD. He starts out over the top and insane. I think seeing at least the 2nd before this gives some explanation to him
Sam Raimi said the motivation for many shots was just to abuse his friends. I think most of the shooting of the second half of Evil Dead 2 was just him with a camera–and maybe a light guy–making Bruce Campbell hurt himself

Oh yeah the movie is A Midwestern Dipshit In King Arthur’s Court. It’s a movie about throwing rubber skeletons at Bruce Campbell.
