seems most Communist states in fairly recent history have been 'governed' right into the ground

the Soviet Union gave up and North Korea is hanging on by a thread
Despite of onomastics and/or label, the Soviet Union could be called Communist state, hardly. I would rather say that the Soviet Union represented extremely oppresive form of tyranny, dictatorship, muzzling policy, etc. all together combined.
I am afraid there is no single state that we can take as a form of Communism that has emerged (in its real ideological and/or political form), ever.
