Essential!! you can go for Shogun Assassin (compilation of first 2 chapters)
Musashi Miyamoto series, few things by Kurosawa for pure samurai pleasure
from newer things
House of flying daggers is quite good, Tabu (Gohatto), Ninja scrolls anime.

Iron Monkey & Once Upon A Time in China Pt 2
I prefer heroic bloodshed films to kung fu though...The Killer, A Better Tomorrow 1 & 2, Hard Boiled etc
they're BIG
