1. A blow molded container for holding contents having barrier properties, said container including an upper wall portion having an opening, a sidewall portion positioned beneath the upper wall portion, and a base portion positioned beneath the sidewall portion which supports the container, said container further comprising; a molded outer layer having an inner surface, said outer layer having a thickness of from 6 to 23 mils; an innermost, non-structural amorphous carbon coating formed on the entire inner surface of the outer layer and adhered thereto, wherein said carbon coating has a thickness from about 0.05 to 10 microns and wherein the thickness of the carbon coating controllably varies along the inner surface of the outer layer, wherein the thickness of the inner carbon layer is independently, controllably varied with respect to the outer layer, and wherein the container is supported by the base which is a freestanding integrally formed base. 2. A container according to claim 1, wherein the thickness of the outer layer varies so that the sidewall portion is thinner than the upper wall portion and the base portion.3. A container according to claim 1, including a barrier material added to the outer layer.4. A container according to claim 1, wherein the carbon is coated on the inner surface of the blow molded container from at least one gaseous hydrocarbon.5. A container according to claim 1, wherein the thickness of the carbon coating varies along the vertical length of the container.6. A container according to claim 1, including at least one of the upper portion of the container including a support flange and the base portion including a plurality of feet.7. A container according to claim 1, wherein the outer layer is colored.8. A container according to claim 1, including a molded inner layer between the outer layer and innermost layer, said inner layer formed from plastic material and having a vertical length.9. A container according to claim 8, wherein the inner layer is formed from a process selected from the group consisting of extrusion and thermoforming, and wherein the outer layer is formed from a process selected from the group consisting of injection molding and compression molding.10. A container according to claim 8, wherein the inner layer includes a material selected from the group consisting of a virgin plastic material, a barrier material, an oxygen-scavenging material, and material that is a combination of a barrier and oxygen-scavenger.11. A container according to claim 8, wherein at least one of the inner layer and the outer layer has a thickness that varies along its vertical length.12. A container according to claim 8, wherein the thickness of the inner layer along the intermediate portion of the container is less than 0.15 the thickness of the outer layer.13. A container according to claim 8, wherein the weight of the carbon coating is less than about {fraction (1/10,000)}thof the total weight of the container.14. A container according to claim 8, wherein the thickness of the inner layer and outer layer are controllably varied with respect to one another.15. A container according to claim 14, wherein the inner layer is formed such that the thickness of the upper wall portion thereof is thinner than that of the sidewall portion thereof and the thickness of the base portion thereof is thicker than the sidewall portion thereof.16. A container according to claim 14, wherein the outer layer is formed such that the thickness of the upper wall portion thereof is thicker than that of the sidewall portion thereof and the thickness of the base portion thereof is thicker than that of the sidewall portion thereof.
