Pleasure Victim was the second gold-certified studio album by the American New Wave band Berlin, released in 1982. The singles from this recording were "Tell Me Why", then "Sex (I'm A ...)", followed by "The Metro" , and lastly "Masquerade". Pleasure Victim is often listed as being an EP album, although it is uncertain if seven songs constitutes an EP. All the songs were written by bassist John Crawford except "Masquerade" (by Chris Ruiz-Velasco) and "Sex (I'm A ...)", which was a collaboration between Crawford, singer Terri Nunn, and guitarist David Diamond.

The band System of a Down covered the song "The Metro", which was included on the Dracula 2000 movie soundtrack.
