Jack in "American Werewolf" is perhaps his most remembered role as the sidekick to David Kessler, who was played by David Naughton. The duo was savaged by a werewolf in Scotland, gradually turned David into one himself.

Dunne's turn is macabrely humorous as he returns throughout the film in the company of David's other, progressively more putrid victims to implore him to kill himself before he turns into a full-fledged monster and wreaks havoc on the terrified citizens of central London.
