What was the inscription at Headquarters at the beginning of Hellboy? Dr. Froom translated it as something like, “When there is no light, darkness prevails.”
I could maybe help out. Do you remember what the quote itself was? I haven’t seen the movie myself.
It says something like, “In Absentia Lux Tenebrae Vincit.” This isn’t the exact quote; you’d have to correct the conjugation and you’d have it.
I haven’t seen the film in question, but the quote could be along the lines of:
In absentia lucis, tenebrae vincunt = in the absence of light, darkness prevails
or
In absentia lucis, tenebrae vincent = in the absence of light, darkness will prevail
