Essentially communism is not democratic. A democracy is a government where the people make the decisions about the government, but in communism the government has no input from the people it governs. Instead they are told how to live, what to say/not say, and if they protest they are arrested/killed. So, to answer your question this does not exist since they are opposite theories in government.

This phrase sometimes comes up in the context of the naming of certain Communist countries, which have a tendency to style themselves "The Democratic People's Republic of ..." It's nothing more than a cynical ploy to attach some legitimacy of popular government to what, in almost all cases, is barely even Communist, and usually a totalitarian Dictatorship masquarading as a popularly-supported (hence "Democratic") Communist government. Good examples here are: The Democratic People's Republic of Korea (AKA North Korea), The Democratic Republic of the Congo (AKA Zaire), and the People's Democratic Republic of Ethiopia.
