If I move the hand wheel by hand, it will sew a few stitches, then it stops and the machine just revs really fast, but the handwheel doesn't move and the sewing mechanism/feed dogs, are still.

It probably needs gears replaced or has a loose gear. Unfortunately you need to take it in to a repair shop. (I am assuming that you are not in button hole or have the stitch length set to zero).
good luck!

Feed dog drive gear(2) are plastic and are probably stripped. Always replace them in pairs. While you are at it replace both hook drive gears as well. It will run as good as new.

It sounds like you have to take it in and have it checked by a repair shop, without seeing it, I really do not know what you are saying, as in "hook", turning the handwheel backwards messes up the timing, you always have to turn it towards you. Look at your manual and please identify the parts you are trying to explain with their correct names or we really do not know what you mean

Make sure that you pushed the bobbin winder all the way to the left.
