Immediate help required please. Car won't start after oil change

Ok I replaced valve cover gasket today and oil change. Threaded the oil filter on wrong an it cut the o ring so when I started the car it was leaking and the car wouldn't stay on. Sputtering then die. Fixed that, drained oil, replace o ring refill with oil. I might be a little but low on oil now, start the car, no leak but it still stalls out and won't run

Please help, I would appreciate it a lot

That would do it. Glad you're up and running.
