Psycho reference in "Somebody's Watching Me".
From around 1:33:- https://youtube.com/watch?v=7YvAYIJSSZY&pp=ygUVU29tZWJvZHlzIHdhdGNoaW5nIG1l
shareYep, that's a famous one. That song was a big hit worldwide. There was, however, a much more expansive song and music video homage to Psycho around the same time (early '80s) that sadly wasn't much of a hit and was little seen:

I'm pretty sure that the 'creepy mansion' location used in the video both for interiors and exteriors is Ettington Park (which is now a hotel) which was the location used for exteriors in The Haunting (1963). That location won't have come cheap, reflecting that the band in question, Landscape, were given quite a bit of 'push' at the time. Their flashy video was directed by Brian Grant who was one of the top dudes at the time. He did stuff like the video for Olivia Newton-John's 'Physical' and he directed what is still one of the best music videos ever for Peter Gabriel's 'Shock the Monkey':

I have seen that other Psycho tribute you posted. Thanks for reminding me. I totally forgot about it.
Didn't Brian Grant do a couple videos for Whitney Houston?
Yes he did. The Guardian had an article that interviewed him about how he really was in the right place at the right time to get in on the ground floor of music video with M's 'Pop Muzik':
