Mickey is a supporting character from the British zombie-comedy film Cockneys vs. Zombies. Known by his friends as "Mental Mickey" because his violent and sociopathic personality, he is a former soldier turned criminal who runs a gun racket in London's East End. He is portrayed by Ashley Thomas.

History[]

When Terry and Andy Maguire organise a bank robbery so they can save their grandfather's care home, they call upon their mutual friend Mickey to provide guns for the job. The robbery doesn't go as planned, but escaping turns out to be less difficult than expected due to a sudden zombie outbreak. While the Maguires are against it, Mickey decides to take two hostages - Emma and Clive - to ensure that he gets away with the £2.5 million that the group stole from the bank.

When the gang stop at an empty factory, Mickey confronts a lone zombie, toying with it. This results in Mickey getting bitten and thus doomed to turn into one of the undead, but Mickey refuses to listen to his friends and continues to threaten them and the hostages. He ties up Emma and Clive, keeping a gun trained on them whilst guarding the bag full of stolen cash.

While resting in an armchair, Mickey succumbs to his bite wound and turns into a zombie. The Maguire brothers come into the back room and they free Clive and Emma before Mickey can bite them. Terry tries shooting Mickey in the head, but Mickey has a metal plate in his skull so the bullets just bounce off. Terry then grabs a grenade from Mickey's pocket and stuffs it in his mouth before pulling the pin. Terry, Andy and the hostages run out of the back room just before the grenade goes off, obliterating Mickey.
