Lionsgate’s The Old Way debuted at No. 1 on both the Redbox disc rental chart and the Redbox On Demand chart the week ended Feb. 26.

No. 4 on the disc rental chart, and No. 8 on the digital chart, was Screen Media’s Devil’s Peak, about an 18-year-old who must choose between his meth-dealing kingpin father and leaving his home in North Carolina’s Appalachian Mountains forever with the girl he loves.
