UVIR filters' effect on film

After selling off the the M8s, (first was a black, followed by the chrome, then the chrome M8.2, M8.2 Safari, returned with a chrome M8 for IR, M9 silver then finally M9P.) i have tons of UVIR filters left over. Am just wondering what are the effects/ outputs if I were to mount the UVIR filters on to shoot in
1. M9 or later digital?
2. Black and white film?
3. Colour films?
4. Slides?
It will be quite a waste to keep these filters in the drybox unattended. Anyone keen in getting any UVIR filters can PM too, sizes range from 39mm-72mm.

Generally, UV/IR filters won't affect color and slide films much, but there might be a color cast issue.

For B&W, it will depend on whether it is IR B&W film (or UV for that matter), but I do not anticipate too much issues with those since they are largely designed for visible wavelengths.
