In 1993, Ramon "Bong" Revilla, Jr. headlined the film "Dugo ng Panday" ("Blood of the Blacksmith") as a descendant and namesake of the original Flavio and Edu Manzano as the antagonist. The plot of the film takes place centuries after the first Flavio's death and then his descendant finds the "balaraw" because of his pure heart, and takes up his mantle as the "Panday". Meanwhile, Lizardo's brain has been transplanted to an alien cyborg body (played by Manzano), while his head (still played by Alvarado) is preserved in a tank. Eventually, the new Panday destroys the cyborg and kills the head.
