When I was a teen I used to have these 'odd' dreams to say the least. They were, well, I guess nightmares, except they weren't obviously horrific or anything; I didn't wake up sweating or breathing rapidly. Then I started getting this deja vu feeling and seeing bits of the dreams if I smelt a paticular smell or heard certain noises, certain words etc. For years I was adament that they were the product of a movie I'd seen as a kid because that's how they felt. Even in my dreams the perspective was almost third person. I didn't feel connected to the subject, the protagonist, in them at all. I even searched for for the movie title occassionaly, wondering why I couldn't remember more or anything distinct, just bits of dialogue or snatches of situations. Then, when I was fifteen I was at a friend's house and something we were watching, I d'know, didn't make me remember more, but made me realise why I hadn't ever been able to find the movie. I realised suddenly that she was me. I almost fainted, no joke. I went white, clammy and colapsed.
Within four of five days of that happening I'd remembered whole evenings, incidents etc. I'm sure, even now, there are things I still don't remember. I even have a memory in which the other person involved in these 'incidents' said things, specific things about other occassions, and i don't know even now if that person was being truthful or whether they were manipulating me. I was so young.
Not sure if that's similar to your experience, but its the only experience I have of anything like that.
