There are two ways to do this. First, you can break a few vanes out of the grill, and use a long screw driver to operate the lever that the cable pulls, or you can lay on your back underneath the vehicle, and using a long screwdriver operate the same lever. The latter is usually very difficult.

How do you open the hood latch of an 88 Corsica when the cable is completely broken off?
Is the cable broken or just the handle that you pull? If just the handle, you should be able to pull the cable with a pair of pliers. Have someone push down on the hood just a little bit while you pull. May also need to pry the hood up also. If and when you get it up, lubricate the latch with anything, oil, WD40, something. If it is broken where you cannot get to, you may be able to get the grill out, or possible get the cable to come thru the grill and pulling on it there.

first thing you do is get yourself a pair of needlenose pliers with the cutter on them then lay down under the front of the car. you will see the cable to the hood release from underneath the front of the car. reach the pliers up and cut the cable housing but not all the way through it, so dont squeeze too hard when you cut. after you snipped through the housing not the cable, reach back up with the pliers where you made the cut and pull down towards the ground and the hood will release. j to the izzo
