I do like slasher horror movies, but every once in a while I like to watch a movie that has little of the over saturated Hollywood action style horror movie aspects, instead favouring uncomfortable slow build methods. The story, lighting, character reactions/dialogue, and music, really worked for me whilst watching this movie. With slasher movies, I enjoy the ride by leaving my brain at the door, but this style of movie invades some of the more uncomfortable thoughts in your mind..... if you are prepared to let it.
I notice that some viewers have complained that the character reactions were not believable. I often think that this is due to how difficult it is for movie makers to help audiences to suspend disbelief, as we all have seen too many movies. To help me to enjoy these kinds of movies, I try to project myself into the minds of the characters, using empathy. For me, this was easy to do, due to how well the characters were presented, and the initial set up. I imagine that working in a morgue would require practical, rational tendencies, the type of people that would be programmed to look for rational explanations, rather than freak out and bail at the first sight of something they could not explain.
I would recommend watching this at night, and by yourself for best effect. I streamed it during the day. On the positive side though, it was a very windy day, and I did notice the creaks in the house, a door blow open, and my fan started turning due to an otherwise unnoticeable gust of wind..... or was it. Always a good sign that a movie has got under my skin.
