Can you boot in rescue mode? Can you boot with upstart? Please boot without "quiet splash $vt_handover", and see how far you get. (Make a photo of the screen or so, if you don't get far enough to get a terminal). It would also help to boot with a debug shell, and get the list of pending jobs there; for that, see /usr/share/doc/systemd/README.Debian.
