If what Godmachine suggested doesn't work and I don't see why it wouldn't.... lol

is there resistance when you pull the hood release? if not the cable is no longer connected to the hood latch. Getting to it is going to suck pretty much I have no idea how you would try to get to it with how our bumper / crap there is situated. Maybe from underneath the car you could somehow get to the latch and pull it. Fixing it shouldn't cost that much if you try it yourself.

Great suggestions guys! Those should all work! But try putting the car in the air and getting to the cable that way, or from the wheel well. Most likely the cable snapped somewhere.
