Cold, colder, coldest....

Dear group,

After having disturbed other members of my family for a long time by 
confiscating space in the freezer with sensible and outdated film, I am 
about to give in and confiscate an entire freezer for this purpose (a 
different freezer of course....;-)).
After a little test it looks like I can set the freezer between -15C and 
- -35C (8F and -28F). Since the freezer is running continue on the coldest 
setting, I was wondering whether there is a critical freezing temperature, 
below which no extra storage life of film can be expected.
One specific temperature in my case is -18C/-23C (2.6F/-6.4C), as this is 
the temperature at which Ektachrome IR wants to be stored.
The question is: does it make sense to go lower than that, both for normal 
film and this sensible IR-film?
