How long has the car been sitting?
Do you sense that the clutch is slipping as the car moves, or is the 
car jumping sharply as soon as the starter motor engages?
I had a car whose clutch seized like this while I was away at college 
for 6 months.  It broke free with a few tries of forward then reverse 
creeping with the starter motor.

Ok, now what, with car in reverse/1st, parking brake disengaged, clutch
pedal pushed in, engine on, car begins creeping forward.

Please don't tell me I am going to have to pull the engine,,,,,,,again.
