Did you try both sides of the back seat, they have separat look switches (you would be extremly unfortunate to have all three of them - this is including the drivers seat release lever - in looked position at the same time).

In case you do, it might be easier/cheaper (than fumbling with the door locks) to get a spear tail light from ebay/other member/yunk yard and smash the one at your car. This should give you as much access to the trunk as needed to move one of the rear seat levers back into unlook position.

Good luck!
