Can someone help identify the following movie? I saw it as a youngster
and it has stuck in my mind ever since.

A skilled samurai has a good friend who is murdered at the hands of the
head of a samuari "school" as punishment for something.  The hero goes
to the school to seek revenge.  The resulting battle of this one man
against the whole school, winding in and out of the corridors, smashing
through rice-paper screens out through the court-yard is amazing.
Eventually the hero succumbs but only after dispatching dozens of
lesser samuari.
