Recycling may be catching on everywhere, but video stores are taking it to a new level. Six months or so after their theatrical runs, most mainstream movies reappear as video rentals; now they're re-reappearing on the sales chart. Breaking up the usual roster of kidvid and fat-busting tapes, 6 of the top 20 best-selling titles this week are adult movies repromoted at more affordable prices (about 20 bucks). While Ghost may have made the perfect valentine, the presence of Marked for Death (No. 11), GoodFellas (No. 13), and Sleeping With the Enemy (No. 16) shows that grown-ups are increasingly building video collections for themselves as well as their kids.
