“Marxism” is a silly term that needs throwing out. Marx wasn't’t a prophet trying to establish a new religion, he was trying to develop a social science.

In truth, every “Marxist” interprets Marx their own way, which is all for the good. What Marx wanted was not “Marxism” (a term which apparently appalled him, but “scientific socialism”.

To the extent that we can talk of “Marxism” at all, classical Marxism refers to the ideas that were dominant in Marx’ own time in the socialist movement, up until the revisionism of Bernstein and revolutionary revision of Lenin set Marxist theory on divergent paths.

After the Second World War, Marx became the starting point for Western critical theory, which is probably what you mean by “modern” Marxism, although, it must be said, modern critical theory has taken a number of steps far beyond anything Marx dealt with.

Basically, “Marxism” is an abstraction, what we have is various radical forms of critical social theory which are as “Marxist” as modern evolutionary theory is “Darwinian”. And just as the only people going on about “Darwinism” are science-denying creationists, the majority of people cooking up fancy labels like “modern Marxism” or “cultural Marxism” are anti-socialists looking for ways to discredit people they din’t like.

Every political theory gets revised, modified, updated and, sometimes, discarded. Marx’ ideas have led to a massive surfeit of theoretical approaches, many of which no longer have anything recognizably “Marxian” about them.
