Default Air Conditioning question

The air in my car isn't cold. When I turn the a/c on the compressor spins 1/4 of a turn then stops, spins 1/4 of a turn then stops and keeps doing that. When I test the system pressure it registers 0, the needle on the gauge does move at all.
When I try and put freon in the system, it won't take it. When I hook-up the a/c refill hose with the engine and a/c on and attempt to fill the system, freon and oil from the refill can spray everywhere when I take the line off.

Could this be a bad expansion valve? Would that cause the compressor to start and stop?
