PITTSBURGH — Zane Hershberger always had a keen eye for when a fight scene in a schlocky 1980s movies wasn’t up to snuff.
“I remember watching indie movies growing up, some super low-budget stuff,” said the 47-year-old Wexford resident. “When you’re watching people fight, you can tell they’re pulling their punches.”
A few years ago, his friend Chad Bruns approached him about working on a film that would pay homage to ‘80s action movies. Hershberger, a seasoned independent filmmaker with a black belt in karate and a degree in film and video production from the now-defunct Art Institute of Pittsburgh, was ready to ensure the fight scenes would be worth the price of admission.
