The beginning is good. Maybe even very good. It's tense, scary, misterious and creepy. The first 25 minutes deserve a watch.
But after that... unfortunately, it becomes worse. Less scary, less creepy and kind of boring. It gets way too slow and it starts to linger unnecessarily, even when nothing really happens. Creating atmosphere is fine, if done right. But if you linger too much on your creepy scenes, the viewer gets used to them and eventually gets bored. To give an example... characters staring can be unsettling. But if the shot lasts for too long (or if you show the same thing over and over again), it just becomes... well, stupid. And boring.
And at some point in the movie, the main character does something really stupid. After that, it's hard to empathise with her. Or even pay attention to what's happening.
Watch the first 25 minutes and skip the rest.
