“Under The Skin” Viral Site Asks A Touchy Question Kevin C, March 6, 2014March 6, 2014 While we look forward Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow, her smaller horror project is about to be unleashed the very same day as Captain America: The Winter Soldier.

Hit the Jump to find out more.Once you hit touched-some1.com a simple question is presented, “When was the last time you touched someone?”.
