Actor
Rodrigue 'Le Visqueux' Thibodeau “The Slipperiest Handshake in Retro-Canadian Cinema”
Thibodeau played the oily head of the offshore staffing agency whose burst pipe unleashes the Radioactive Corporate Sludge. He greased his own hair, palms and moustache before every take so that his handshake would slide right off the other actors. Audiences booed him so loudly at the Sherbrooke premiere that he took a bow, which made them boo louder.
How He Was Discovered
Found selling "lifetime" vacuum cleaners door to door in Granby, where he had talked three households into buying a second one for the cat.
