Man in black

The Adjustment Bureau, The Matrix, Dark City, MIB.

I keep seeing the man in black in dreams. Where did he come from? He is a swarthy man about 6 feet tall with wide native american facial features and slicked back hair. His hands are weathered and the skin on his face is pock marked. He has a pitch black suit, a dark slate grey shirt with textured stripes and no tie. He simply enters the dream or nightmare to END it. He touches me and vanishes. I have seen a shadow creature before that resembles him. It simply touches me and disappears.

I cannot say that I am a spiritual man however much I would like to be. I always see this figure especially in dystopian movies and fiction. Any insight would be helpful. I believe that this would be the closest thing I would have to an angel, demon, or spirit guide.
