a friend of minewho used to work in film made this cool as shit movie where the reds looked insane and the sky was a weird ominous color and it was just brilliant. it was reversal film cross-processed and since that's what you've got i'd say it's worth trying it yourself.
by the way i clicked your link and that lab you're using (or just buying from?_) does telecine to miniDV. that's the way to go if you don't wanna be cutting tiny film strips. plus you can add further shit digitally. plus you can distribute without making film prints.

What I meant was.. ektachrome doesn't use the same chemistry to process as either slide;e6 or neg;c41 process. Just wasn't sure WHAT chemistry it did use. Apparently though now it
is fairly standard to process ektachrome in e6.. I guess previous chem(long list of types used) is discontinued or not used by most labs, or non die hareds.. and thus modern ektachrome64t/100d is suited for e6 process.?
There are sites where people suggest otherwise though.. and note ECN-2 rather than c41 for x process... and that there is also e6 specific for cinematic footage film stock rather than still.. and I wonder which is the chem process the lab I have access to, uses. Think I will need to email the group perhaps and list my q's in order to get an idea of what my options are. They do list a lab in Melb that does b/w though so yey.
this film on youtube lists ecn-2 as x process for ektachrome and has super blown out reds. Was it anything like that? --->
