Psychomania (1973) is a British horror-cult film starring Nicky Henson, Beryl Reid, George Sanders (in his final film) and Robert Hardy.
Frequently revisited by nostalgic modern audiences for scenes filmed in the (now demolished and rebuilt) Hepworth Way shopping centre and Wellington Close housing block in Walton-on-Thames, Surrey, it is also more obscurely known as Death Wheelers Are... Psycho Maniacs in Australia and The Death Wheelers in the United States.
Tom Latham enjoys riding his motorcycle with his girlfriend and loves his mother, but he is no ordinary fellow. He is an amiable teen psychopath, clearly modeled on Alex of A Clockwork Orange fame. Like Alex, he has an unusual pet (a frog) and a distinctive catch phrase, "hello, little green friend."
Tom is the leader of a violent teen gang, who ride motorcycles, dabble in black magic and call themselves "The Living Dead". In a similar vein, his mother and her sinister butler get their kicks out of holding séances in their home. With her help (and following in his father's footsteps), Tom makes a pact with the devil to return from the dead. One by one, he and his fellow bikers commit suicide with the goal of returning as one of the "undead". Several of them fail, but the ones who do return gather together at a secret place called "The Seven Witches" (a circle of standing stones), after which they continue to terrorize the locals.

FOR A LONG TIME I BELIEVED THIS WAS FILMED IN HATFIELD OR STEVENAGE, HERTFORDSHIRE. BUT NO, IT TURNS OUT TO BE "WALTON-ON-THAMES". THIS IS FROM THE 1972 HORROR FILM "PSYCHOMANIA". THE STORY WAS ABOUT A GANG OF BIKERS CALLED THE "LIVING DEAD" WHO KILL THEMSELVES IN MOTORBIKE ACCIDENTS, THEN COME BACK TO LIFE. IN THIS SCENE THEY TERRORISE THEIR LOCAL SHOPPING CENTRE (WALTON-ON-THAMES).
