In B&W try Rollei SP200 (@ 800 in Nikon F100 due to meter sensibility) with a 665 filter. Not quite as strong effects as HIE but with a bit of work it comes close.
Kind regards

The Rollei SUPER PAN 200 is sensitized till 740nm. Can be used with a RG695nm (89B) or RG715nm (88A) IR filter either.
Other options: Rollei IR 820/400 (till 820nm) iso 400
Efke IR 820 (till 820nm) iso 100
SFX 200 (till approx. 730nm) iso 200
The HIE was sensitized far over 900nm and was a real IR high sensitive IR film but MUST be loaded and unload in complete darkness. Above films can be loaded and unloaded in the camera by very subdue light without any problem.
When using above IR filters (89B or 88A) the effective film speed is:
Rollei IR 820/400 iso 12-25
Efke IR820 iso 3-6
The SUPER PAN 200 I have not tested yet with one of above filters. Compared with the other IR films this Rollei film is still pretty cheap (half priced of the IR films).
780nm will only work well with the HIE due to the wide bandwith of this film. Maybe the Efke on a very low iso speed (1 or 0,5) will give some results due to the fact this IR film is pretty straight forward to 820nm. The Rollei IR 820/400 is going down fast in sensitivity over 750nm wavelenght.
A dark red will give no 'wood' effect with all mentioned alternative IR films.
