You can stream Bohachi Bushido: The Villain (1974) on Midnight Pulp with a subscription.

The Bohachi Clan, the most vile, corrupt organization with ties deep in the Shogunate, have controlled the flesh trade in Japan for generations. When threatened by a competitor, they employ Saburai, a nihilistic ronin on the verge of self destruction. Blood gushes and limbs fly for anyone who stands against Saburai as he instills the Way of the Bohachi.

This period piece swaps traditional honor for a nihilistic frenzy of gore and corruption. A self-destructive ronin carves through the Shogunate's flesh trade with a violent, unhinged energy that defies samurai tropes.
