HERE'S MORE ON THE ORDER, another movie with Aramaic in it. Follow this link for The Order's website. You can view the trailer there and, if you have Flash installed, can waste lots more time looking at photos, clips, etc. The trailer claims to show a bit of Aramaic ("the language of Christ"), but it doesn't look much like Aramaic to me, and "blood in, blood out" is not a phrase that would be easy to say in Aramaic, which doesn't allow dangling prepositions. (They would need direct objects: "blood in something, blood out of something.") Oh well.

UPDATE: Boston.com reviews The Order and trashes it.
