I really liked this movie. As mentioned in other comments, it was a nicely unfolding mystery. No one beat you over the head with the plot, and unlike most current movies, you have no idea where the story is going in the first three minutes. I like that.
I also thought that the film had a nice Lynch-like, or even Hitchcock-ish quality: some great sweeping shots, really nice cinematography, good acting (personally I'm tired of super slick production, quick cuts, and shiny happy people without depth).
Although none of these films could be put in the same genre by anyone but me probably, I thought it had much of the qualities of films I like that don't have to be supershiny and perfect such as Vampiros Lesbos, Diva, The House on Haunted Hill, 400 Blows, and a dash of Withnail and I.
This film doesn't rush, it nicely unfolds and was a nice surprise.
