Reset the car at TDC, both the crank and camshaft. You will feel some resistance when rotating the engine over by hand due to the engine compression, remove all 4 spark plugs and you can turn it over easily.

If the car sounded like a sewing machine when you were cranking it to try and start it, the belt slipped and a few valves may be bent. Not the end of the world, but you will have to pull the cylinder head off.
