In the film's climax, his children are being stalked by the extraterrestrial creatures, and so in order to draw their attention, he screams loudly, but not before signing to his kids that he loves them.

It wasn't terribly surprising that Lee didn't make it to the finish line, but he went out in a ballsy, bada** fashion while reinforcing the movie's key theme - survival of the family unit at all costs.
