Damaged Goods (1914) is an American silent film directed by Tom Ricketts, starring Richard Bennett. It is based on Eugène Brieux's play Les Avariés (1901) about a young couple who contract syphilis. No print of the film is known to exist, and Damaged Goods is considered to be a lost film. It is believed to have begun the sex hygiene/venereal disease film craze of the 1910s.

The play was adapted into a British silent film Damaged Goods in 1919. A sound film based on the Brieux play, also titled Damaged Goods (1937) was directed by Phil Goldstone, released by Grand National Pictures, and was closer to an exploitation film about premarital sex without mentioning venereal disease.
