 This topic has been extensively discussed both at this board and HP 
Movie.  I snipped the part of a Movie thread message (to the Mods: it 
refers to the books, so don't shoot me, let me post it).

The thing is, I started wondering if Voldie might have been residing 
in Snape's body, when he went to the Godric's Hollow to kill the 
Potters that night . After all, Tom Riddle possessed Ginny in CoS and 
Voldie possessed the snake in OoP during the attack on Artur.  Maybe, 
it's his usual technique...  Voldie might have felt more secure, 
going to confront that baby in somebody else's hide *g*.  Snape, 
driven by Voldie's mind, killed James and tried to drive away Lily, 
telling her "Stand aside, you silly girl" (a very Snape-like phrase,  
which Harry hears during the Dementor-induced flashbacks in PoA").  
But he had to kill her, too :(  And then, then...  I can only 
speculate that the rebounded curse drove Voldie's mind out of Snape's 
body...  When Snape put himself together a little, instead of 
finishing off little Harry, he brought him to Dumbledore! (OK, to 
Hagrid.)  That's why D-dore trusts Snape so much.

I like my theory, because this situation is sure to skyrocket both 
Snape-angst and tension between Snape and Harry in future books. Lots 
of drama for our reader's satisfaction. 

However, the questions I ask myself are:
* Where was Voldie's body when (OK, if) he possessed Snape, and what 
happened to it afterwards?  Indeed, where was Voldie's body when he 
was possessing the snake during the attack on Arthur?
* Letting Voldie possess Snape, was it just some scheme by Snape & 
Dumbledore, which aimed at saving all Potters, but went badly awry?  
Or was it Voldie's initiative, which took them all by surprise and 
Snape could do nothing about it...
* What destroyed the house?
* Why not kill Lily?  LOLLIPOPS, anyone? 

And so on...
