$600!!!??! That's got to be vexing for a mortgage-paying, responsible pet owner to swallow. I'm glad it's treatable, though- it's a condition that's given me nightmares ever since reading about it in Prince of Tides. Leory clearly pulled the lucky card when he came to live with you.
You're right; the movie does sound ridiculous and melodramatic, or else like something that could be amply covered in a nice, 10-minute Occurence at Owl Creek Bridge-esque film short. There's no way to convey the creepy feeling one gets while watching it. I spent forever trying to track down the book, and never did get my own copy. gaycrow was kind enough to send me her own copy all the way from Australia (and I really should send it back one of these days) and I proclaim this film "Most Loyal to its Book EVER".
