Mickey Altieri was one of Sidney Prescott's best friends at college. He was obsessed with movies and often filmed whatever was going on. He subtly increased paranoia and suspicion when the murder spree began with intimate conversations. He finally revealed himself to be one of the killers to Sidney. He was betrayed by his mentor, Mrs. Loomis, but managed to get one more scare in before getting gunned down by Sidney and Gale Weathers.BackgroundA psychotic obsessed with films, he met Mrs. Loomis on-line. She helped him go to Windsor College and his tution fees so the two of them could execute a murder spree. He planned on getting caught and starring in the following media circus. At college, he befriended original survivors Sidney and Randy Meeks, as well Sidney's boyfriend, Derek Feldman. He even started dating Sidney's roommate, Hallie McDaniel to further embed himself in her life. Once the murder spree was over, Mickey stabbed Hallie after escaping a car accident, shot Derek tied to a cross, and attempted to shoot Gale on the stage, but managed to survive and kill Mickey with help from Sidney.Scream 2In an early scene in the movie, while at film class, he argues that violence in the media contributed to the theatre killings the following night. He also says sequels can be better than the original, unlike Randy. Mickey and Randy seem to have a solid relationship, unlike the rocky one between Randy and the killers Stu and Billy from the first movie. However, under this, Mickey is deranged and psychotic. Mickey has a fascination with murderers and how the media affects them. He met Mrs. Loomis, Billy Loomis's mother on a serial killer website and agreed to help him with his tuition fees and expenses if he can kill Sidney for her. With her guidance and tuition expenses, he does the killings so she can plan out the revenge for Sidney killing her son.Mickey, in the last scene, claims that unlike most killers, he wants to be caught so he will be "immortalized" by the media and be in the worlds most talked about court trial. He shoots his friend Derek, who was hanging by a cross. However, Mrs. Loomis shoots him, saying that his motive will never be believed. Before he seemingly dies, he shoots Gale off stage. After the whole ordeal is over, he jumps back up and gets killed in a hail of bullets by Gale and Sidney. His dream never came true. Character In the Scream 2 DVD commentary, Wes Craven likens Mickey to Iago; both characters deftly cast suspicion onto others. ==Behind the Scenes He was described as "20's, athletic, cool and rowdy" in the script. In the original script, Mickey was innocent and chained naked outside by his greek brothers for declaring his love for Hallie over them. Sidney eventually untied him, but he was then stabbed to death simulteanously by two killers. This role was given to Derek, and Mickey ended up with Derek's film obsession and being Ghostface. A deleted scene further cemented that Mickey and Hallie were a couple.
