Pull the spark plugs and turn the motor by hand. (You could turn the motor
by the key at that point, but you need to be looking at the engine, and you
need a "more controlled" environment than you will get using the starter
motor.)

I'm guessing that you have hydrolock that keeps the motor from going around.
If I am correct, you should get a gush of coolant from at least one of the
spark plug holes. You'll be needing head work if this is correct.
