Ouch that sucks. Are you sure you put the correct key in it. One key is for the ignition the other is for the doors and trunk. Try spraying wd40 or equivalent in past the key the mechanism might be rusted or corroded making it stick.

if you can get the hatch open you can see the back of the latch mechanism .. you might beable to grease or lube something in there to get it to release
