LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - A week after it debuted at No. 2 on the national DVD sales chart, "I Am Legend" moved up to the stop spot, swapping places with "Enchanted."

The Will Smith sci-fi actioner led Home Media Magazine's video rental chart for a second week, and has generated an estimated $20 million in rental revenue alone. "I Am Legend" also was the top-selling Blu-ray Disc in the week ended March 30, with "No Country for Old Men" No. 2.

Elsewhere on the Nielsen VideoScan First Alert sales chart, the Stephen King shocker "The Mist" was the top new release, at No. 3. It also debuted at No. 2 on the rental chart. "The Kite Runner" took off at No. 7 on the sales chart, and at No. 9 on the rental chart.
