Lots of grain, lots of contrast

Use infrared film without the red filter, and overprocess by one stop. Shoot the photo at the desired focal length but take two or three steps back from where you normally would have shot it.
In the darkroom you will have a large crop to do and use a high contrast filter.
You can do this with a regular high-speed film also, like Delta 3200.

Reticulation may result in reticulation patterns that are different from standard grain.

Ilford delta 3200 deved in strong rodinal ( 1:25 or stronger ) will defintely do it for you.
Or dev in a print developer but it may be toooo grainy.

Don't have times for it but you can experiment.
