Remove rear seat, make a long hook of some sort and yank on the emergency trunk release. Or ask someone for a jump start, and when they have their battery hooked up to your pos/neg cables, you'll be able to open trunk like normal.

If there is no key hole on the trunk, and trunk release doesn't work, then hook up a set of jumper cables to another car and you should be able to pop it.

Hook the jumper cables up to the battery cables as normal. Or get crazy and drop a spare battery in there. Then you'll have power for electronic actuators to pop locks, etc.
