Vic Silayan getting the most horrifying response from an upset son (Philip Salvador) who found out what the former did to the latter's wife in Marilou Diaz-Abaya's gothic period drama Karnal.
Freedom fighter Philip Salvador silently holding the body of his young son who was killed by vigilantes in Lino Brocka's provocative political piece Orapronobis.
Downtrodden Johnny Delgado's sad situation made even worse by a son (Marvin Agustin) expressing his own grudges over dinner in Laurice Guillen's religious melodrama Tanging Yaman.
Stoic patriarch Manny Ojeda, all the while silently suffering thoughout the harrowing events around him, extends help to future grandson-in-law Joel Torre, in Peque Gallaga's epic war drama Oro,Plata,Mata.

Mario Montenegro's wheelchair bound bounder in Mike de Leon's Itim.

Mario Montenegro's virile freedom fighter and Leroy Salvador's cuckolded one in O'Hara's Mga Bilanggong Birhen.

Christopher de Leon's divided Japanese officer in Tatlong Taong Walang Diyos.

The greatest father monster of them all: Vic Silayaan (who Marilou borrowed for her own remake) in Kisapmata.

Rodolfo Boy Garcia as William Martinez's father in "Bagets". I think it was one of his rare good guy roles and even though in the movie, his character seems like a bad guy at first, you know all he's doing is trying to instill discipline in his son like a good father should.
