Communism has never been accurately developed and implemented. Unfortunately, several leaders throughout history have use the name "communism" in order to attain great power, which has given the term a considerably negative connotation.
It was developed by Marx only relatively recently and since then it's few incarnations have been artificial; not genuine. Marxism was replaced quickly by Leninism, which is actually a form of fascism (to tie this back into the thread).
