Default Oooops! Mold in my primary!

I made a batch of apple wine about 6 months ago and forgot to clean out my
primary after transfer. Anyway, it has set for all that time with gross
lees and a bit of liquid in it ever since. Now I'm ready to make some
grape wine and am worried about cleanliness. There is a deep layer of mold
that smells horrible on the bottom. I have campden tablets, but I'm afraid
this won't negate the smell of funkiness coming from the plastic. Should I
use bleach then campden tabs or what??? Please help!!!
