You don't remember them because they occur during the first few REM cycles during sleep. Usually everyone will dream 3-4 times a night, every night. Even the later cycles (which are usually much deeper) sometimes aren't remembered.
You remember the ones that are important for some reason, it's as simple as that. Dreams can happen because your mind is trying to work out what has happened that day, or the previous few days & weeks etc. Or they can happen because your mind has worked itout, and is trying to show you something it considers important. These are the ones you remember.
Scary, the human mind, isn't it? And this is the thing that I was trying to replicate. Hmm.
EDIT: Oh to of been a fly on your wall when you were scared half to death, that would of been funny to see. Only, I wouldn't of wanted to be a fly on your shoulder, for obvious reasons, big hairy spider etc.
