Spoiler follows:

In a scene that serves to ease dramatic tension before the climax of
the movie, Count Dracula and Van Helsing participate in an impromptu
toilet-sculpting contest.  Each participant is given a four-foot-high
block of marble and a chisel.  Within an hour, Dracula's toilet is
finished, a truly gothic monstrosity of a crapper, replete with
screaming demons, screaming spirits, and screaming meemies.  Van
Helsing, by contrast, takes two full days to complete his toilet,
pausing neither to eat nor sleep.  Unfortunately, the result of
his exertions stresses function over form, and is judged unutterably
banal by the passersby.
