Marabunta by Leiningen/dam blown-up, causing flood – 1
(I’m including the army of soldier ants in the count, as they do exhibit uncanny intelligence in addition to deadliness--- using leaves to cross the river, for example. Marabunta is also considered as one unit as the ants act together with unity of purpose, of 'one mind'. And they’re clearly the antagonists to Leiningen, as the title of the short story on which the movie is based indicates, Leiningen versus the Ants by Carl Stephenson.)
