afterglow review
Afterglow has films, including projects such as “Deep Flame,” and guided material. Its written guides are open to browse and give you a sense of the approach before you consider a subscription.
Browse the guide and film catalogs separately
The guides section gives you material to read before opening the paid catalog. Browse the film list separately to see which titles you’d come back for. Erika Lust is a comparison for readers mainly interested in a director and a film catalog.
Know which payment route you used
Afterglow’s published terms describe renewal for its recurring membership and name the payment processor and its own email as cancellation routes. Look at your checkout confirmation for the processor and the date of the next charge. The public guides are useful even if you’re still deciding about a membership.
Anabel’s take
I’d read a guide and pick a couple of films before deciding. That gives me two concrete reasons to return if I do join.
